| 英文描述 | ACTINOBACILLUS LIGNIERESII is a gram-negative bacterium often found as a commensal in the digestive tract of cattle and sheep. Occasionally causes soft tissue masses in cattle and sheep, usually in the head region including the tongue, but the disease can be more widely distributed. In rare cases the forestomachs are involved leading to bloat and other signs. The organism is widespread, and probably enters tissues by trauma. Dx by culture of the masses. Reports of this disease are scarce in goats, but it may occur. |
