The Relation of Bacillus Abortus from Bovine Sources to Malta Fever
نویسنده
چکیده
1. Comparative tests on guinea pigs with B. abortus yield the best results when minute doses are injected subcutaneously and the animal kept at least 4 weeks. 2. B. abortus gradually loses its virulence for guinea pigs under artificial cultivation. 3. Two cultures resembling B. abortus from cattle, isolated from human cases of so called Malta fever, are shown to be in their effect on guinea pigs not identical with the bovine strains. 4. The results of studies of B. abortus from swine indicate a close relation between the porcine strains and the two human strains.

Variations in Co2 Requirements among Bovine Strains of Bacillus Abortus
Strains of Bacillus abortus freshly isolated vary in their CO(2) requirements. The origin and sources of the strains growing with less dependence on CO(2) (or sealing) may be in vaccinal strains or possibly in continued existence in the udder. The importance of these possibilities makes it desirable that all strains isolated should be subjected to some such test as is outlined in these pages.
