title: [Diagnostic value of serological and bacteriological methods in sheep affected with S. abortus-ovis and Chlamydia psittaci var. ovis infections].
abstract: It was found that the shedding of Salmonella organisms by sheep with Salmonella abortions was most active during the first fifteen days following abortions or lambing. In sheep affected with a mixed Salmonella abortus ovis and Chlamydia psittaci var. ovis infection this period was longer (about 30 days). The excretion of Salmonella organisms was more strongly manifested with the vaginal discharge than with the feces, urine, and milk. No correlation was established between the titer value of the antibody level against Salmonella abortus ovis and the results of the bacteriologic investigations. There was such correlation only with animals with y positive hemoculture finding in but the period from the first to third day following abortion.
