In situ evaluation of tissue. PBS control pig Gp4-4-2021 had no intestinal lesions (A). C. difficile infected pig Gp4-7-2021 euthanized at PID 5 developed mesocolonic edema and discoloration (B). C. difficile infected pigs Gp4-9-2021 and Gp4-8-2021 euthanized at PID 10 developed the most severe intestinal lesions of all Gn pigs, including intestinal dilation and inflammation, mucosal hemorrhages, and extensive mesocolonic edema (C, D)
