  • Title: Fluoride intoxication in dairy calves.
    Author: Maylin GA, Eckerlin RH, Krook L.
    Journal: Cornell Vet; 1987 Jan; 77(1):84-98. PubMed ID: 3802832.
    Abstract:
    Chronic fluoride intoxication in dairy cattle, caused by feeding fluoride contaminated commercial feed, was previously described in a dairy herd. Dental fluorosis and a catastrophic decrease in milk yield were the foremost findings. In calves born to the fluoride intoxicated cows, congenital fluorosis was manifested by brown discoloration of enamel, enamel hypoplasia, brown mottling of bone, severe retardation of cartilage cell differentiation, atrophy of osteoblasts, osteopenia, atrophy of bone marrow cells, serous atrophy of bone marrow fat and severely stunted growth.
