VIBRIOS FROM THE INTESTINAL TRACT OF THE GRAY RAT.
Vibrios obtained from the intestinal tracts of wild rats are described. The organism is a normal inhabitant of the lower ileum and cecum of the rat and may be cultivated from these regions. While these rat organisms are in their growth characters and morphology like those found in an intestinal disease of cattle they differ serologically from the cow organisms.
