The Epidemiology of Fowl Cholera
Field studies of fowl cholera on two commercial poultry farms are described. One farm, previously free of cholera, was studied during an active epidemic, which occurred during the winter months. The strains of P. avicida recovered, both from "autopsy" and from "healthy carriers" proved generally similar, and to be of the "fluorescent" or "intermediate" colony type, which is of relatively high v...
متن کاملExperimintal Study of Peracute Fowl Cholera due to Pasteurella multocida Vaccinal Strain (serotype A1) in Chickens
In order to show the type and severity of gross and histopathologic lesions induce by vaccinal strain (serotype A1) of Pateurella mulocida, ten four-week-old SPF chickens were inoculated intramuscularly with 75 cfu of ( 0.5 ml of 10-7 dilution) bacterium. All birds died in less than 16 hours. No prominent gross lesions were observed in different organs. In microscopic examination, the most comm...
متن کاملMolecular epidemiology investigation of outbreaks of fowl cholera in geographically related poultry flocks.
The present work describes two cases of consecutive fowl cholera outbreak series occurring in goose and turkey flocks. Most strains isolated from epidemiologically related outbreaks showed genetic relatedness, as revealed by enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus-PCR and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, suggesting that the consecutive outbreaks were due to recurrences rather than rein...
متن کاملMolecular epidemiology of two fowl cholera outbreaks on a free-range chicken layer farm.
Two outbreaks of fowl cholera on a multiage free-range egg farm were investigated. The outbreaks occurred in 1994 and 2002. A total of 22 strains of Pasteurella multocida were available for study, 11 from the 1994 outbreak and 11 from the 2002 outbreak. Lesions typical of acute fowl cholera were seen in the 1994 outbreak, whereas both acute and chronic fowl cholera occurred in the 2002 outbreak...
