A serial subculture of Dalling's original strain has lost its liquefactive power. The power of liquefying solid serum (or the lack of this power) should not be applied as a "major" test in classifying a lamb dysentery-like micro-organism.en©Union of South Africa, Dept. of Agriculture (original). ©University of Pretoria, Dept. of Library Services (digital).Veterinary medicineSouth AfricaVeterinary reportsVeterinary medicine -- South AfricaBlood plasmaBlood -- AnalysisArticle
