Treatment with neomycin (as a positive control) and dried oregano leaves on mortality, number of days scouring and severity of scours due to Escherichia coli were examined in 30 Holstein calves. Calves were assigned to one of the treatments following clinical signs of diarrhoea (i.e. faecal score >2), and treated either with an oral solution of neomycin sulphate, to provide 10 mg neomycin sulphate per kg calf body weight per 24 h, or dried oregano leaves, to provide 10 mg oregano essential oil per kg calf body weight per 24 h. The number of scouring days, severity of scouring and mortality rates were similar between the treatments. This study indicates that dried oregano leaves administered as an oral solution to calves with diarrhoea may be as effective in the treatment of colibacillosis as neomycin.
在30头荷斯坦犊牛中，研究了新霉素（作为阳性对照）和干牛至叶对因大肠杆菌导致的死亡率、腹泻天数及腹泻严重程度的影响。根据腹泻临床症状（即粪便评分>2）将犊牛分配至其中一种处理组，分别用硫酸新霉素口服溶液（每24小时每千克犊牛体重提供10毫克硫酸新霉素）或干牛至叶（每24小时每千克犊牛体重提供10毫克牛至精油）进行治疗。各处理组之间的腹泻天数、腹泻严重程度和死亡率相似。本研究表明，给腹泻犊牛口服干牛至叶治疗大肠杆菌病的效果可能与新霉素相当。
