Type 3 Diplococcus Pneumonia in Laboratory Rats |
|
| Authors: | H Baer and Anni Preiser |
| Abstract: | An acute respiratory disease, due to Diplococcus pneumoniae type 3, affecting Wistar and Sprague-Dawley rats is described. The infection was experimentally transmitted to Sprague-Dawley rats. The zoonotic potential of the condition dictated euthanasia of affected animals and instigation of rigid sanitary measures. |
