Bacillary White Diarrhœa. De Bacillaire Witte Diarrhe of Witte Afgang der Kuikens. Dr. G. Vandevelde-Vlaamsch-Diergeneeskundig Tjdschrift, 1933, p. 57.

Summary:

The pullorin- or wattle-test, in its present state of development, cannot be commended for eradication of pullorin disease from poultry flocks. This, according to our own experiments and those of several investigators and laboratory-workers in B. W. D. control. The pullorin reactions don't check with the bacteriological and post-;mortem findings. The only accurate, reliable and suitable methods for the research of the infected birds are the seroagglutination and the whole blood rapid test. The two methods are of similar scientific value.
