Combination effect of allyl isothiocyanate and hoof trimming on bovine digital dermatitis. [PDF]
J Vet Med Sci, 2018 Digital Dermatitis is a localized infectious dermatitis caused by Treponema-like spirochetes. Antibiotics, such as lincomycin, are currently used for treatment, but their use imposes a withdrawal period. This study investigated the therapeutic effect of topical application of the natural component allyl isothiocyanate, in combination with maintenance ...

Bovine digital dermatitis in Victoria, Australia [PDF]
Australian Veterinary Journal, 2019 AimsThe objectives of this study were to estimate the prevalence of digital dermatitis (DD) in Victoria, Australia, and to investigate which organisms are consistent with typical DD lesions. The prevalence and causative pathogens of DD are not clear yet in Australia and this paper is one of the first to explore these questions in this country ...
