An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for monitoring rodent colonies for Pasteurella pneumotropica antibodies.

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed for the detection of Pasteurella pneumotropica antibodies in the sera of rats, mice, hamsters and Mastomys. P. pneumotropica from mice and rats showed cross-reactivity. The ELISA using P. pneumotropica NCTC 8284 detected more infected animals than selective culture in groups of rodents from which P. pneumotropica, Haemophilus sp and/or ...

Lung lysophospholipase activity in specific-pathogen-free rats infected with Pasteurella pneumotropica or Mycoplasma pulmonis.

The effects of Pasteurella pneumotropica and Mycoplasma pulmonis infections in specific-pathogen-free rats were studied to determine whether or not bacterial infections could cause an increase in rat lung lysophospholipase activity and/or changes in bone marrow eosinophil levels. Lung lysophospholipase activity levels of M. pulmonis-infected rats were elevated with increasing infection dosages,...

Synergistic effect in viral-bacterial infection: combined infection of the murine respiratory tract with Sendai virus and Pasteurella pneumotropica.

Synergism was demonstrated between Sendai virus and Pasteurella pneumotropica in the respiratory tract of mice showing no evidence of previous infection with either agent. Mice aerosol challenged with P. pneumotropica invariably eliminated the viable organism from their lungs within 72 h. In contrast, intrapulmonary killing was delayed in animals previously infected with Sendai virus. Maximum s...

Pasteurella pneumotropica Evades the Human Complement System by Acquisition of the Complement Regulators Factor H and C4BP

Pasteurella pneumotropica is an opportunist Gram negative bacterium responsible for rodent pasteurellosis that affects upper respiratory, reproductive and digestive tracts of mammals. In animal care facilities the presence of P. pneumotropica causes severe to lethal infection in immunodeficient mice, being also a potential source for human contamination. Indeed, occupational exposure is one of ...
