Immunity to Lancefield's group E. streptococcus: flank inoculation of susceptible and immune swine.
Healthy swine flank inoculated with Lancefield's group E Streptococcus sp developed characteristic signs of streptococcal lymphadenitis of swine; however, abscesses were found in prefemoral lymph nodes rather than in cervical lymph nodes. After 6 months, swine (recovered from the cervical form of streptococcal lymphadenitis of swine caused by oral exposure to group E Streptococcus) were flank inoculated with group E Streptococcus sp. Only transitory signs of diseases developed and abscesses did not develop in the prefemoral lymph nodes.
