    Abstract:
    Twelve sheep, divided into two groups of 6 animals each, were used. The first (test) group was offered herbazin -50 with the feed in the course of 90 days after which the animals were infected via the joints with Corynebacterium pyogenes. The second (control) group was also infected with the same pathogen in the same way. During the time the preparation was given and 30 days post infection the animals were kept under observation, following up their clinical, condition, and the occasional morphological and biochemical changes taking place in the blood and the immunobiologic responsiveness. It was found that sheep treated with herbazin -50 with a following infection with Corynebacterium pyogenes raised their blood levels of sugar, total protein, potassium, sodium, magnesium, SGOT, SGPT, and manifested an increased ESR, and lower calcium, inorganic phosphorus, carotene, vitamin A, and cholesterine serum level. It was also established that surgical infections brought about through such introduction of C. pyogenes developed much more rapidly and ran a much more severe course in sheep after the preliminary treatment with herbazin -50. It is believed that they emerged after suppressing the immunologic responsiveness with the use of the preparation.
