The experimental infection of pigs with Campylobacter sputorum subspecies mucosalis. Weaned pigs, with special reference to pharmacologically mediated hypomotility.
The weaned pig proved resistant to infection with Campylobacter sputorum subsp mucosalis after oral dosing. Pretreatment with benzetimide to reduce gastrointestinal peristalsis allowed mucosalis infection to be established.
