Abstract
Lesions typical of necrotic enteritis could be produced experimentally in 11-26% of broiler chickens consuming feed containing .apprx. 107 Clostridium perfringens/g. Highest mortality was produced using isolates from field cases of necrotic enteritis which were reisolated from experimental cases in the laboratory. Penicillin in the drinking water at 100,000 IU completely prevented mortality chloramphenicol at 110 mg/l delayed the onset and reduced the number of deaths compared to controls.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
