Lactobalance
Key takeaways from the research
- Tonicity and sodium levels of oral electrolyte solutions can vary significantly
- Compared to a hypertonic oral electrolyte solution, a hypotonic oral electrolyte solution is more suitable to correct the acid-base balance of calves with diarrhoea
- Faecal water and sodium losses in calves treated with the hypotonic OES are lower compared to the losses in calves treated with the hypertonic OES
