Description:American foul brood is an illness of the bees' brood (Apis mellifera L.). It is very highly contagious and is caused by the sporogenic bacterium Paenibacillus larvae larvae. This video informs the viewer about the biological basis and epidemiology of this reportable epidemic disease; it shows which characteristics can be recognised and used to differentiate it from other brood diseases. Beyond this, the following areas are given particular emphasis. Laboratory diagnostics of the pathogen, including early diagnosis by means of spore detection in the honey, hygienic measures in apiaries (killing or shook swarm procedure); cleaning and disinfection measures; additional measures in accordance with animal epidemic law. (Real and macrophotographic images as well as special effects).
