Histopathological lesions in central nervous system of goats poisoned by Ipomoea carnea
Ipomoea carnea var. fistulosa (Convolvulaceae) is a perenne poisonous plant, found throughout the Argentine Northeastern. The intoxication produces a lysosomal storage disease in goats, sheep and cattle. Five goats were fed with 50 g/kgBW/day of fresh leaves, flowers and stems of I. carnea, during 4...
