Abstract

Source of isolation. The source of isolation was two White Leghorn hens (85 weeks old) from a commercial flock with typical ocular form of MD. Only one eye of each bird was affected. Aqueous humor was collected aseptically with a 1-ml syringe and a 23-gauge needle from the affected eye of each bird following electrocution. The cornea was swabbed with alcohol cotton and then flamed prior to collection of aqueous humor.
