abstract

the virulence of pasteurella multocida (p. multocida) serotype a1 for chickens and mice was determined. groups of chicken and mice were exposed intramuscularly and intraperitoneally to various concentration of p. multocida broth culture, respectively. this strain was highly virulent for chickens so that those exposed to only 7 c.f.u. of the organism died in less than 24 hours. groups of mice exposed to the virulent strain died during 48 hours post inoculation. microbiological examination resulted in the isolation of p. multocida from exposed chicken and mice. no isolation was made from unexposed control groups. the result indicates that the isolate is highly virulent for both chickens and mice.

Experimintal 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...

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...

Signature-tagged mutagenesis of Pasteurella multocida identifies mutants displaying differential virulence characteristics in mice and chickens.

Pasteurella multocida is the causative agent of fowl cholera in birds. Signature-tagged mutagenesis (STM) was used to identify potential virulence factors in a mouse septicemia disease model and a chicken fowl cholera model. A library of P. multocida mutants was constructed with a modified Tn916 and screened for attenuation in both animal models. Mutants identified by the STM screening were con...

Pathology of Pasteurella Multocida Infection in Chickens

The present study was conducted on 42, 12-15 weeks old birds to study the gross and histopathological changes induced by Pasteurella multocida infection. The birds were divided into two groups viz., control and infected consisting of 21 birds each. The birds in infected group were administered with LD 50 of local isolate of Pasteurella multocida A:1. Three birds from each group were randomly sa...
