The fate of Aeromonas hydrophila after a bacteriaemia in four healthy pigs intravenously inoculated with 10(9) and 10(15) cells of the bacterium was investigated. In two pigs slaughtered 30 min after inoculation the bacteria were found in blood (8 x 10(2)/ml and 4.2 x 10(2)/ml), meat and fatty tissues (1-10/g), but not in liver, spleen and superficial inguinal lymph nodes. A. hydrophila was not found in blood, meat, fatty tissue, liver, spleen, kidneys and superficial inguinal lymph nodes of other two pigs slaughtered 5.5 h postinoculation, with exception of one superficial inguinal lymph node of one pig.
