Clinical and pathological changes in goats inoculated Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis by intradermal, intranasal and oral routes
This study describes lesions and clinical responses that develop in goats following experimental infection with Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis by intradermal, intranasal and oral administration. Three groups of 5 goats each were given 1 ml inoculum containing 107 cfu/ml live Corynebacterium pse...

Controls were unexposed normals. Goats were assessed for clinical signs, body temperature and blood cell count and serum biochemistry. The animals were euthanized 30 days after exposure and pre-scapular, submandibular, supra-mammary, inguinal and mesenteric lymph nodes, lung, liver and kidneys were excised for bacterial isolation and histopathology examinations.
