Quantitative aspects of fecal Rhodococcus (Corynebacterium) equi in foals

S Takai et al. J Clin Microbiol. 1986 Apr.

Abstract

Quantitative aspects of fecal Rhodococcus (Corynebacterium) equi in newborn foals for 12 weeks after birth were investigated on two horse breeding farms. R. equi was found in the feces of foals during week 1 of life. The greatest numbers of R. equi were present in the feces of foals during the first 8 weeks of their lives, which coincides with the age when foals are most liable to be exposed to R. equi.
