[Experimental "per os" transmission of Entomophthora coronata to the mouse]
Bulletin De La Societe De Pathologie Exotique Et De Ses Filiales
|September 1, 1976
Abstract:
Mycelial fragments of E. coronata have been observed in the pus of abscesses of the neck and the shoulder of mice inoculated per os, far from the point of inoculation. However, the subcultures were negative; a positive subculture was obtained in only one instance from a lung taken off ten days after the inoculation by the fungus.
Insights
Disseminated fungal infection by E. coronata was observed in mice after oral inoculation. Despite initial findings, confirming the fungus in subcultures proved challenging, with only one positive lung culture.
