title: Campylobacter fetus (Vibrio fetus) infection in dairy herds in South-West Scotland.
abstract: Infertility and abortion caused by Campylobacter fetus is described in a series of 12 herds in South West Scotland during the period May 1974 to December 1976. Herd studies show that 44 bulls were involved and that there were 34 bull and 18 cow movements for breeding purposes. The need to include C fetus infection in the differential diagnosis of herd infertility is emphasised.
