A mycoplasma from acute contagious caprine pleuropneumonia in Kenya

K J MacOwan et al. Trop Anim Health Prod. 1976 May.

Abstract

A mycoplasma was isolated from acute caprine pleuropneumonia in Kenya. The organism could be differentiated serologically from the known strains of mycoplasma with which it was compared. When the organism was inoculated into goats it caused pleuropneumonia which was readily contagious, and from which the organism could be reisolated.
