Salmonella Brandenburg in non-pregnant 8-month-old sheep

Abstract
Extract S. Brandenburg has been reported as a cause of abortion and often subsequent death of ewes from areas of the South Island of New Zealand (Bailey, 1998 Bailey, K.M . 1997. Sheep abortions associated with Salmonella Brandenburg. Surveillance, 24(4): 10–11. [Google Scholar] and Clark et. al., 1999 Clark, G , Fenwick, S , Boxall, N , Swanney, S and Nicol, C . 1999. “Salmonella Brandenburg abortions in sheep, pathogenesis and pathology”. In Proceedings of the 29pth Seminar of the Society of Sheep and Beef Cattle Veterinarians NZVA 13–22. Palmerston North, , New Zealand: Veterinary Continuing Education, Massey University,. [Google Scholar] ). This bacterium has also been isolated from a bitch with metritis, a dog with diarrhoea, cattle with diarrhoea and black-backed gulls (Laurus dominicanus) (Clark et. al., 1999 Clark, G , Fenwick, S , Boxall, N , Swanney, S and Nicol, C . 1999. “Salmonella Brandenburg abortions in sheep, pathogenesis and pathology”. In Proceedings of the 29pth Seminar of the Society of Sheep and Beef Cattle Veterinarians NZVA 13–22. Palmerston North, , New Zealand: Veterinary Continuing Education, Massey University,. [Google Scholar] ). It has also been isolated from pigs, goats, a takahe (Notornis mantelli) and a deer (Bailey, 1998 Bailey, K.M . 1997. Sheep abortions associated with Salmonella Brandenburg. Surveillance, 24(4): 10–11. [Google Scholar] ). Until recently S. Brandenburg was thought only to affect sheep in the later stages of pregnancy.
