Outbreak of acute colitis on a horse farm associated with tetracycline-contaminated sweet feed.

A A Keir1, H R Stämpfli, J Crawford.   

Abstract

Exposure of a group of horses to tetracycline-contaminated feed resulted in acute colitis and subsequent death in one horse and milder diarrhea in 3 others. The most severely affected animal demonstrated clinical and pathological findings typical of colitis X. The other herdmates responded well to administration of zinc bacitracin.
