Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
A change in ration from one containing 50% fish meal to a standard chick starter containing 10(8) Clostridium perfringens/g of feed resulted in the production of necrotic enteritis in 2-week-old broiler chicks. Lincomycin added to the inoculated ration at a concentration of 20 g/907.2 kg significantly reduced mortality in the chicks. Inoculation of broth cultures of C perfringens directly into the duodenum, using a surgically inserted tetrafluoroethylene resin tube, indicated a relationship existed between the number of C perfringens inoculated and the gross lesions. The disease could be consistently produced by this technique. |
