FIG. 2.
Abdominal cavities of mice euthanized at 12 h (B) and 24 h (C) after i.g. gavage with whole cultures of Clostridium perfringens type C (strain CN2019) plus TI. Note the moderate (B) and severe (C) dilation of the small intestine (arrows) in the mice inoculated with this microorganism. A normal control mouse inoculated with sterile, nontoxic TGY is shown for comparison (A).
