Physiopathologic changes in lambs fed with Astragalus lusitanicus Lam.
A study was made of acute experimental poisoning of lambs with A lusitanicus Lam. The animals suffered a nervous syndrome with physiopathologic changes in blood and cerebrospinal fluid indicative of nervous alterations. A lusitanicus Lam causes a form of "locoism" whose development may involve a thiamine deficiency.
