Pathogenicity of Dermatophilus and Geodermatophilus

Morris A Gordon 1, Ula Perrin 1
PMCID: PMC416259  PMID: 5154874

Abstract

Cutaneous infection in laboratory animals could not be induced with any of several strains of Geodermatophilus. A model for consistent production of streptotrichosis in rabbits, with cultures of Dermatophilus congolensis, is presented.
