A mouse adaptated strain of Chlamydia ovis, when inoculated in the peritoneal cavity, caused the death of both pregnant and non pregnant mice. In addition, mice inoculated late in pregnancy (12 to 16 days after breeding) aborted 4 to 6 days after inoculation. Chlamydia was recovered from foetuses and from the organs of the mice (Liver, Spleen, Lungs). The severity of the disease was related to the inoculum concentration, so it was possible to induce late abortions with a rapid recovery of the females, like in the natural infection of the ewes. In the same conditions, the original Chlamydia strain maintained by passage on yolk sac, induced only an inapparent disease transmissible to the young mice.
一种绵羊衣原体的小鼠适应株，接种于腹腔时，可导致怀孕和未怀孕小鼠死亡。此外，在怀孕后期（交配后12至16天）接种的小鼠在接种后4至6天流产。从胎儿和小鼠器官（肝脏、脾脏、肺）中分离出衣原体。疾病的严重程度与接种物浓度有关，因此有可能诱导晚期流产，且雌性小鼠能快速恢复，就像母羊自然感染时一样。在相同条件下，通过卵黄囊传代保存的原始衣原体菌株仅引起一种可传染给幼鼠的隐性疾病。
