The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of topical application of antiseptics in the therapy of DD (digical dermatitis) lesions in affected dairy cattle. The applied antiseptic solutions were: copper sulphate (8%), zinc sulphate (8%), formalin (8%) and peracetic acid (3%). The treatment was carried out daily during the first seven days, thereon every second day for a total of 30 days. Chlortetracycline was used as the negative control. By estimation of the presence, size, and painfulness of the DD lesions we have established that zinc sulphate had the best curative effect when compared to other antiseptics.
