The characteristics of the microbial load in the septic podal diseases in the cattle

Abstract

The main pathogen agent of the podal disease in the cattle is the anaerobe microorganism Fusobacterium necrophorum, which produce a hemotoxin able to destroy the erythrocytes and the fibers of the tissue, with the role in the necrosis production.
