V. ISOLATION O F C. FETUS
A. Material useful for isolation in animal and man
For diagnosis of infected bulls, samples of preputial secretions collected
by pipette are helpful. Also suitable are specimens obtained by washing the
preputial mucosa with 10 ml of thioglycollate medium (Oxoid, London),
or washing out samples from the artificial vagina after removing sperm
(Bisping, 1974). Sperm itself is less useful; only a small number of CampyloFIG. 2. Cumpylobucter fetus from 96-h liquid culture, long spiral filaments
(magnification x 1000).
