[Streptococcal infection in newborn lambs]

N Masalski, N Pavlov, P Kandov

    Veterinarno-Meditsinski Nauki

    Summary

    Streptococcus zooepidemicus caused a fatal septicaemia in newborn lambs, affecting their respiratory system. This bacterial infection led to significant lung, pleural, and pericardial damage, confirming its high pathogenicity in young sheep.

    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Pathology
    • Microbiology
    • Animal Health

    Context:

    • A severe disease outbreak in newborn lambs resulted in high mortality.
    • Streptococcus zooepidemicus was identified as the causative agent in deceased lambs.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate the cause of a high mortality disease in newborn lambs.
    • To confirm the pathogenicity of the isolated Streptococcus zooepidemicus strain in lambs.

    Summary:

    • The disease was experimentally reproduced by intratracheal inoculation of lambs with Streptococcus zooepidemicus.
    • Clinical signs included septicaemia and severe respiratory distress.
    • Post-mortem examinations revealed significant pathological changes in the lungs, pleura, and pericardium, consistent with acute septic processes.

    Impact:

    • Establishes Streptococcus zooepidemicus as a highly pathogenic bacterium for young lambs.
    • Provides crucial information for understanding and managing ovine neonatal diseases.
    • Highlights the need for effective disease control strategies in lamb populations.
