About this work
Description
Vaccines: Blackleg can cause serious loss among young cattle and occasionally, among sheep. The disease is sudden in onset and rapidly fatal. Cl.chauvoei, one of the soil anaerobes is the cause of true blackleg. Some deaths simulating blackleg. particularly in housed cattle and in sheep, are due to a different organism, Cl. septicum, the cause of braxy in sheep. A single injection of 'Wellcome' improved Blackleg vaccine stimulates a strong and durable immunity. Dose cattle :2 ml; Sheep 1 ml. injected subcutaneously.
Folder contains data information sheets and one pamphlet on Blackleg Aggressin-Vaccine and Blackleg Anti-Serum.
