dc.description.abstractThe aim of the study is to determine the effect of immunocastration vaccine administration at different doseson fattening performance of feedlot Holstein bulls. In this research, 94 Holstein male calves assigned to the 4treatments. Control group; 1 mL of 0.9% saline solution was subcutaneously injected to intact bulls on 1st and60th days of the feedlot as placebo. On the same days of the feedlot, Immunocastration vaccine (Bopriva®) attwo doses of 1 mL and 1 mL for Trial-1 group, 1.5 mL and 1.5 mL for Trial-2 group, 1.5 mL and 1 mL forTrial-3 group were subcutaneously injected to bulls. The feedlot lasted 180 days. Immunocastration vaccineadministration at different doses did not affect the live weights (LWs) and cold carcass yields of feedlotHolstein bulls (P>0.05). However, it reduced fattening performance between 61-120 days (P<0.05) and 1-180days (P<0.01). As a result, it was decreased the fattening performance that administration of Bopriva® atdifferent doses as a GnRH vaccine in Holstein male bulls; whereas it was determined that numerically increasein average daily live weight gain was found in the Trial-2 group than the other groups to which theimmunocastration vaccine was applied.
