USE OF PROBIOTIC BACTERIAL STRAINS AS A PROPHYLACTIC TOOL AGAINST UTERINE INFECTIONS IN PREGNANT FEMALE RUMINANTS

摘要

A method of treating uterine infections in a female bovine includes the step of, prior to parturition, intravaginally administering the female bovine with one or more bacterial strains such as Lactobacillus sakei FUA 3089, Pediococcus acidilactici FUA 3140, and Pediococcus acidilactici FUA 3138, effective for treating pathogenic microorganisms associated with postpartum infection of the uterus of female bovines.
