چکیده

Isolation of Pasteurella multocida was attempted from the heart blood, spleen, liver and lung collected from turkeys (4 No,s) and chicken (4 No,s) suspected to have died of avian pasteurellosis. A total of eight P. multocida isolates were isolated and identified on the basis of biochemical characteristics, pathogenicity studies in mice and PM-PCR. The In vitro antibiotic sensitivity test of the organisms was conducted which revealed that all the isolates showed sensitivity to a wide range of antibiotics namely Enrofloxacin (100.00 per cent), Ciprofloxacin (100.00 per cent), Oflaxacin (100.00 per cent), Gentamicin (100.00 per cent), Amikacin (100.00 per cent), Ampicillin (100.00 per cent) and Penicillin (100.00 per cent). Both turkey isolates and chicken isolates showed sensitivity to Oxytetracycline (50.00 per cent) and Doxycycline (50.00 per cent) whereas all the turkeys and chicken isolates showed resistance to Chloramphenicol, Poymixin B, Trimethoprim, Erythromycin and Triple sulpha. Hence this study recommended to perform in vitro antibiotic sensitivity test prior to treatment in cases of fowl cholera. If not feasible, Fluoroquinolones, Gentamicin, Amikacin, Ampicillin and Penicillin must be given preferential consideration over other antibiotics particularly Chloramphenicol, Poymixin B, Trimethoprim, Erythromycin and Triple sulpha to contain the outbreak of Fowl cholera.

Prevalence of adhesion Virulence factor genes, antibiogram, and pathogenicity of avian Pasteurella multocida isolate from Iran

Pasteurella multocida possesses various virulence factors, including capsule, lipopolysaccharide, fimbriae, toxins, outer membrane proteins, and adhesions. Adhesins have a crucial role in mediating colonization and invasion of the host. The aim of the present study was to identify the prevalence of adhesion factor genes and resistance/sensitivity patterns among the avian P. multocida isolates f...

Pasteurella multocida is known as an important heterogenic bacterial agent causes some severe diseases such as fowl cholera in poultry and haemorrhagic septicaemia in cattle and buffalo. A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was developed using primers derived from conserved part of 16S-23S rRNA gene. The PCR amplified a fragment size of 0.7 kb using DNA from nine avian P. multocida  isolates...
