Bio-Ceutic Laboratories is marketing the first injectable chemical castration product for calves Called Chem-Cast, the veterinary prescription product is a patented chemical solution labeled for syringe injection into the testes of bull calves up to ISO pounds. Chem-Cast will be available only through licensed veterinarians. With proper administration, Chem-Cast painlessly destroys the testes and testicular tunics, leaving the calf castrated within 60 days after injection. Bio-Ceutic researchers developed Chem-Cast to avoid the calf stress, pain and hemorrhage inherent in surgical and Burdizzo (clamping) methods of castration. Injected with a small needle, Chem-Cast minimizes risk of in fection associated with surgical 4« ACIZS PJ The Water Pump Diesel • Better Service • Hand Cranked Standard • 24 Air & Water Cooled Models Available Diesels Our Specialty, Call For Used Diet sis Let Us Know Your Service Problems 24 Hour Service AUTHORIZED FETTER DISTRIBUTOR HOOVER DIESEL SERVICE PH: 717-656-6133 PH: 717-786-2173 2998 West Newport Rd.

Chem-Cast also desensitizes the treated tissue to minimize calf stress and prevent setbacks after castration. In two years prior to licensing, Chem-Cast was tested in 23 field trials in five regions of the U.S. with 1,426 calves of beef, dairy and dairy-cross breeding. Ef fectiveness of Chem-Cast ap proached 100%, proving to be as effective as surgical castration, and more effective than Burdizzo castration. Calves castrated with Chem-Cast did not exhibit post castration complications often associated with other methods. In the four weeks following castration, calves injected with Chem-Cast required less treat ment than Burdizzo- and surgically-castrated calves, and showed no setback as indicated by daily gain and feed efficiency.
