Chickens dying from Eimeria necatrix infection had clinical signs indicative of hypothermia, depleted carbohydrate stores, acidosis and kidney dysfunction. Blood lost into the intestine of infected chickens was great (15-22 ml). The body temperature of moribund chickens was 10 C lower than the control. Chickens dying from E. necatrix infection displayed similar physiological defects to those of chickens dying from E. tenella infection.
死于柔嫩艾美耳球虫感染的鸡表现出体温过低、碳水化合物储备耗尽、酸中毒和肾功能障碍的临床症状。感染鸡肠道内失血量大(15 - 22毫升)。濒死鸡的体温比对照组低10摄氏度。死于柔嫩艾美耳球虫感染的鸡表现出与死于毒害艾美耳球虫感染的鸡类似的生理缺陷。
