Title:
Seroprevalence of caseous lymphadenitis on a number of goat farms in the province of East Flanders
Abstract:
Caseous lymphadenitis (CL) in goats is manifested by abscesses filled with caseous pus, mainly in the superficial lymph nodes, but also in internal lymph nodes and several organs. Not only because of the direct economic losses, but also because of the zoonotic aspect, the occurrence of the disease can harm the profitability of the goat farm. Because until now no records have been available in Belgium, a prevalence study for CL was performed in the province of East Flanders.
