Popis: A study involving 357 Jersey cows at the Dairy Experiment Station was conducted to determine the effects of post-partum intrauterine treatment of two formulations on several reproductive parameters. In phase I, animals were treated with a bolus containing an antibiotic, smooth muscle stimulant, and estrogen. Phase II animals were treated with two uterine boluses containing nitrofurazone and urea. Alternate cows were treated and untreated cows served as controls. Neither treatment resulted in any significant (P > 0.05) improvement over control animals in any of the reproductive efficiency parameters measured.
