6 NATALIA. L., SUDARISMAN, and M. DARODJAT. 1996. Prevention ofenterotoxacmiu in transportedcattle. Jurnal ilmu Ternak dam Veteriner 2( I) . Fatal enterotoxaemia oftransported cattle is frequently reported in Indonesiu. Acute enteritis andfatal enterotoxaemia of cattle andbuffaloes in Indonesiaareassociated with toxigenic Clostridiumperfringenrtype A. Theoutbreakscouldhave been caused by somekinds of stress, such as a possible change in nutrition or management as well as transportation. To reduce mortality rate caused by enterotoxaemia, an effective vaccine against thedisease wasproduced. The vaccinewas made in an alum precipitated toxoid form,prepared from Clostridlumperfringenstype Atoxin, which was then tested for safety in mice and for its capacity in generating high immunity in cattle. The vaccine was then used to immunise transported cattle as an attemptto reduce mortality rate and to observe antibody response of cattle following vaocletdon. The results showed that mortality in vaccinated was lower than in non-vaccinated groups of cattle. From field observation, it was obvious that alum precipitated toxoid vaccine could produce good immune response against enterotoxaemia in cattle. It was also evidence that this vaccine could reduce mortality in transported cattle.
