      Hematologic reactions].
PG  - 349-68
AB  - 195 calves were at random divided into 3 test groups and received oral (200 mg 
      Fe/d) or intramuscular (1.0 and 1.5 g Fe on the 3rd and 36th day of the period of 
      fluid feeding) applications of ferridextrane or no additional quotas of iron 
      (control group) and a limited supply of milk replacer and skim milk as well as ad 
      libitum supply with concentrated feed and dried green fodder during their 56-day 
      period in the range of the rearing farm where the calves receive fluid feed. Iron 
      intervention was carried out without considering the individual iron content of 
      tissue. Its effect was evaluated according to the hemoglobin content (Hb), the 
      hematocrit (Hc) and the mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) in 
      venous puncture blood. There was no difference between the test groups as to the 
      stabling conditions (affiliation to race and genotype, birth weight, age and live 
      weight resp. at the beginning of the experiment, live weight gain before the 
      beginning of the experiment). In the control group Hb, Hc and MCHC were analogous 
      to previous epidemiologic investigations concerning the anaemia of calves. The 
      ferridextrane interventions carried out resulted in a raised level of Hb and Hc 
      and diminished anaemia frequency as well as the shortened duration of anaemia in 
      this rearing period.
