  • The study aimed to assess how different routes of vaccine administration and the use of injectable trace minerals (ITM) affect immune responses in dairy calves infected with BVDV2 and BHV1.
  • A total of 60 calves were vaccinated and monitored for immune cell counts, revealing that unvaccinated calves showed significantly lower leukocyte levels compared to vaccinated ones.
  • Results indicated that calves receiving subcutaneous vaccinations had better immune response, particularly in CD4 T cells, and those in the ITM-IN group had the highest CD8 T cell counts, highlighting the importance of both the vaccination method and ITM usage in immune system effectiveness.
