For the active immunisation of cattle and sheep against disease associated with infections caused by Clostridium chauvoei (Blackleg and post-parturient gangrene).

From experience from field use, the duration of active immunity is expected to last one year. The duration of passive immunity is at least 4-6 weeks in lambs, provided that lambs receive adequate quantities of colostrum in the first 12 hours after birth.
