CRICETUS AURATUS W. 1939 AS AN EXPERIMENTAL MODEL IN ANTHRAX

Abstract

An inquiry was made into the susceptibility and infectious sensitivity of Cricetus auratus W., 1939 to B. anthracis in subcutaneous, transdermal, oral and intranasal methods of infection. Cricetus auratus proved to be more sensitive to this bacillus than guinea pigs. Morphological changes in these animals infected subcutaneously were the same as those in other animals.
