An outbreak of acute Lantana camara poisoning in cattle is described in which 10 out of 91 animals died. The affected cattle became icteric and voided soft, black faeces. Necropsies were performed on three steers, and the macro- and microscopical changes in their livers and kidneys were compatible with those of L. camara poisoning. Changes were similar in two steers that developed typical signs after being dosed with fresh L. camara collected in the toxic camp. Clinical pathological changes in experimental animals included elevated serum urea and creatinine concentrations.
本文描述了一起牛群急性马缨丹中毒事件,91头牛中有10头死亡。患病牛出现黄疸,排出软的黑色粪便。对3头阉牛进行了尸检,其肝脏和肾脏的大体及显微镜下变化与马缨丹中毒相符。另外2头阉牛在投喂采自中毒现场的新鲜马缨丹后出现典型症状,其变化与之相似。实验动物的临床病理变化包括血清尿素和肌酐浓度升高。
