Descripción

Infectious bovine keratoconjunctivitis or' pinkeye' is a widespread, contagious ocular disease of cattle, mainly dairy cattle, that is caused by the Gram negative bacterium Moraxella bovis. Its treatment consists of parenteral or topic antibiotic therapy, the last route is used in lactating cows to reduce milk discart. However, cases of treatment failure are common, because the lacrimation removes the antibiotic.
