Trials to determine the effective use of tylosin against AFB have been
done. A proposal to have it registered for bee hive use has been made.
That is where the situation has sat for over a year.
I suppose that with the continued effectivness of oxytetracycline, there
is little demand to complete the process.
I don't think I've heard whether trials against EFB have been done.
Anyone know?
