Mongolian gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus) of Tumble Blook (TUM) and Japan Medical Science (JMS) stocks were compared with regard to susceptibility to Leptospira interrogans serovar copenhageni. The TUM gerbil died 6 to 9 d after intraperitoneal inoculation with 10 organisms, showing jaundice and systemic hemorrhage. However, 25% of the JMS gerbils survived infection with 10(3) or 10(4) organisms and there was no fatal case after infection with 10(2) organisms.
比较了Tumble Blook(TUM)品系和日本医学科学(JMS)品系的蒙古沙鼠(长爪沙鼠)对问号钩端螺旋体哥本哈根血清型的易感性。TUM品系的沙鼠经腹腔接种10个菌体后6至9天死亡,表现出黄疸和全身出血。然而,25%的JMS品系沙鼠在感染10³或10⁴个菌体后存活下来,感染10²个菌体后没有出现死亡病例。
