Abstract
The coli enteroxemia caused by Coli serotype 0139 occurred in contrary to the generally observed course of this infection through several we eks and was exceedingly detrimental. Almost exclusively the shock and oedema form of colienteroxemia was seen. The application of usual sche mes of prophylaxis and therapy did not effect durable reduction of ani mal losses. With the daily oral application of Rhodovet(R), a drug con taining thiocyanate, in dosis of 3.5 kg/t feed during 5 weeks the morb idity resp. mortality could be decisively reduced.
