The preventive effect of 'Laktosan' on clinically healthy calves and the effectivity of this preparation in treating the calves suffering from diarrhea have been studied. 'Laktosan' is a liophilized bacterial preparation consisting of two strains of Lactobacillus - L. plantarum and L. fermentum. It was determined that 'Laktosan' positively effects the endoflora of digestive tract of calves - the total number of Lactobacteria increased in healthy calves (p0,01) as well as in sick ones (p0,001). The total number of Lactobacillus was restored in a three day period, while with the commonly used medicine the total number of Lactobacteria and Lactobacillus was lower (p0,01) after the same period of treatment.
