Epidemic caprine keratoconjunctivitis: experimentally induced disease with a pure culture of Mycoplasma conjunctivae.

S L Trotter, R M Franklin, E J Baas, M F Barile.   

Abstract

The induction of caprine keratoconjunctivitis by the subconjunctival inoculation of a cloned culture of Mycoplasma conjunctivae is described. The clinical course of the experimental disease was similar to that noted in naturally occurring outbreaks of "pink-eye" among goats, and biopsies of inflamed conjunctivae showed similar histological response. M. conjunctivae was consistently recovered from the inflamed conjunctival tissues of inoculated animals that developed ocular disease, thus fulfilling Koch's postulates and establishing this organism as an etiological agent of caprine keratoconjunctivitis. Immunological studies suggested that cellular immune mechanisms may play a role in protecting animals from disease produced by this mycoplasma.
