Rations containing 0%, 6.2%, and 62% Penicillium citrinum contaminated corn were fed to White Leghorn chicks for 5 weeks. The 62% ration induced hemorrhaging throughout the digestive tract which resembled the lesions observed in acute cases of the poultry hemorrhagic syndrome. The 6.2% ration caused atrophy of lymphoid tissue, anemia, leucopenia, and fatty bone marrow which resembled the lesions observed in chronic cases of the poultry hemorrhagic syndrome. The syndrome was reproduced in chicks using ethanol and chloroform extracts of the P. citrinum contaminated corn.
将含0%、6.2%和62%受柑橘青霉污染玉米的日粮喂给白来航鸡雏5周。含62%污染玉米的日粮导致整个消化道出血，这与在家禽出血综合征急性病例中观察到的病变相似。含6.2%污染玉米的日粮导致淋巴组织萎缩、贫血、白细胞减少和脂肪骨髓，这与在家禽出血综合征慢性病例中观察到的病变相似。使用受柑橘青霉污染玉米的乙醇和氯仿提取物在鸡雏中再现了该综合征。
