Abstract
Five strains of Erysipelothrix tonsillarum were isolated from dogs with endocarditis in Belgium. The identity and validity of the species was proved by serotyping, and biochemical and pathogenicity tests. All the isolates belonged to serovar 7 (E tonsillarum serovars); they produced acid from saccharose but did not induce any clinical sign of erysipelas in swine. These results suggest that some strains of E tonsillarum are a canine pathogen.Entities:
