  • Title: Bovine mycotic abortion caused by Acremonium kiliense Grutz.
    Author: Dion WM, Dukes TW.
    Journal: Sabouraudia; 1979 Dec; 17(4):355-61. PubMed ID: 575677.
    Abstract:
    Acremonium kiliense was cultured from the placenta and abomasal contents of an aborted bovine foetus; attempts to isolate viruses and bacteria were unsuccessful although the serum of the dam contained antibodies to Leptospira pomona. The fungus was nonpathogenic for mice but was able to survive in murine tissues for at least 13 weeks. The possibility of this case being a foetal infection as a result of insemination with contaminated semen is discussed.
