| Inhoud: |
A weakly haemolytic spirochete was detected with an unabsorbed fluorescent antiserum to Treponema hyodysenteriae in smears and cultures of scrapings of caecal mucosa of laying hens with diarrhoea. Two groups of experimental chickens were fed a pure culture of this spirochete or homogenated intestinal contents of affected birds. Both groups showed clinical signs of disease such as increased water content of faecal material and slight retardation of growth. A non-specific typhlitis which histologically resembled milder forms of swine dysentery was seen in the birds from which spirochetes were isolated. The isolate obtained differed in cultural, biochemical, anti-genic and morphological characteristics from T. hyodysenteriae. The pathological significance of intestinal spirochetes and their possible epidemiological relation to swine dysentery are discussed. |
