Abortifactive

[…] abortifactive agents such as Brucella abortus and Tritrichomonas foetus are not present in the Swedish bovine population […]

Complete necropsies, abortion panels to rule out other abortifactive agents, serum Ig levels, and aoEBA-specific immunohistochemistry (IHC) were performed on each fetus to confirm EBA diagnosis.

[…] a high degree of seropositivity to N. caninum was diagnosed after evaluating for various abortifactive agents.

Abortion panels were conducted to identify fetal/neonatal losses due to other abortifactive agents.

REMINDER: Steroids may be abortifactive for gravid females; be willing to live by the consequences. Use only in life threatening circumstances for pregnant females.
