Susceptibility of Ducks to Salmonella pullorum and Haemophilus paragallinarum

MyD88 Polymorphisms and Association with Susceptibility to Salmonella Pullorum

Myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88 (MYD88), a universal adapter protein, plays an important role in activating the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and regulating the expression of proinflammatory genes like tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interleukin-1 (IL-1), which were highly involved in Salmonella Pullorum infection. To detect the relationship between polymorphisms of the MyD88 gene ...

Study on phenotypic characteristics of Salmonella gallinarum and Sallmonella pullorum isolates based on biochemical and antimicrobial susceptibility tests in Iran

Salmonellosis is a very important disease of avian species because of its huge economic impact, worldwide distribution and difficulty posed in its control. Fowl typhoid and pullorum disease, is caused by Salmonella enterica subsp enterica serovar Gallinarum biovar Gallinarum and Pullorum. The purpose of this study was to investigate the biochemical characteristics and antimicrobial susceptibili...

Infectious coryza due to Haemophilus paragallinarum serovar B in China.

Haemophilus paragallinarum haemagglutinin: role in adhesion, serotyping and pathogenicity.

It is suggested that Haemophilus paragallinarum requires at least three haemagglutinins for adhesion during infection. This paper reports the partial purification and characterization of the HA-L haemagglutinin from H. paragallinarum strain 46-C3, a heat sensitive, trypsin sensitive haemagglutinin that has been shown to be the serovar specific haemagglutinin in this organism. Using the pl and m...

Effects of transformation on the hemagglutinins of Haemophilus paragallinarum.

Strain 0083 and two field isolates of H. paragallinarum were previously converted into NAD-independent organisms by the use of crude DNA extractions from naturally occurring NAD-independent H. paragallinarum isolates. Two of these transformed isolates [0083(T) and A745(T)] were used as DNA donors in another transformation experiment in which another field isolate (M85) was used as the DNA recip...
