Question

    In which disease post-mortem of the animal is not performed?

    A Anthrax Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Lumpy Jaw Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Tetanus Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Mastitis Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Because sporulation of B. anthracis requires oxygen and therefore does not occur inside a closed carcass, regulations in most countries forbid postmortem examination of animals when anthrax is suspected.
