Abstract:
Five neonatal calves with diarrhoea were presented to the Veterinary Teaching Hospital for treatment. Main clinical signs and results of faecal examination were reported. E. cola was isolated from all calves. Mixed isolates of E. coli and Proteus spp. were found in 3 calves. No mortality was observed among examined calves. The E. col' isolated was subjected to antiobiotic sensitivity test against six antibiotics. Various aspects concerning diarrhoea in neonatal calves are discussed.
