Not illustrated. 1907 Excerpt: ...after inoculation, is rapidly solidified in ice water) a globular area of liquefaction occurred. If sugar is added, active fermentation takes place, with the production of large amounts of offensive gas. It grows well on agar, in bouillon, and in milk. Pathogenesis.--Is pathogenic for man, horses, sheep, dogs, rabbits, calves, pigs, goats, rats, mice, and guinea pigs. Cattle are said to be immune. When bacilli are applied to a scratched surface, infection is not likely to occur, as free oxygen seems to inhibit the growth; if, however, the wound is deep, rapid infection follows, young domestic, and laboratory animals dying within forty-eight hours.

Infection has followed penetrating wounds of the body, by dirty tools, nails, splinters, bullets, etc. The disease is often quickly fatal. It produces, frequently, rapid moist gangrene. Bacilli have been found in the blood of dead animals. Infection is very apt to follow contused wounds, especially if other bacteria, like the Bacteria Vulgae, or Bact. Prodigiosus, are present. A mixed culture in vitrio of this organism, and the bacillus acidi paralactici produces butyl alcohol abundantly. Neither of these organisms separately can do so. SYMPTOMATIC ANTHRAX BACILLUS. Bacillus Chauvoei. Bacillus of Symptomatic Anthrax. Rauschbrand Bacillus. (Figs. 37 and 38.) The cause of symptomatic anthrax, black-leg, or quarter-evil, in cattle.
