  • Title: Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis infection and lymphadenitis (taloa or mala) in the camel.
    Author: Afzal M, Sakir M, Hussain MM.
    Journal: Trop Anim Health Prod; 1996 May; 28(2):158-62. PubMed ID: 8809979.
    Abstract:
    Pure cultures of Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis were obtained from 11 cases of lymphadenitis (known locally as taloa or mala) in camels. Camel isolates produced typical taloa in camels experimentally inoculated subcutaneously at the base of the external ear with 10(10) colony forming units. A sheep strain of C. pseudotuberculosis inoculated into camels produced a local abscess at the site of inoculation but did not produce taloa. Re-infection of camels recovered from experimental inoculation did not produce taloa suggesting the possibility of the development of a vaccine against lymphadenitis in camels.
