P. Mehrtens¹, E.L. Cuttance², W.A. Mason² and R. Nortje³

In NZ field conditions, the Investigational Product was non-inferior to the Control Product for the prevention of clinical and sub-clinical mastitis over early lactation. Furthermore, the Control Product performed better than the Investigational Product in terms of retention of product in the teat canal.
