Serotypes and DNA fingerprint profiles of Pasteurella multocida isolated from raptors.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pasteurella multocida isolates from 21 raptors were examined by DNA fingerprint profile and serotyping methods. Isolates were obtained from noncaptive birds of prey found in 11 states from November 28, 1979, through February 10, 1993. Nine isolates were from bald eagles, and the remaining isolates were from hawks, falcons, and owls. Seven isolates were members of capsule group A, and 14 were nonencapsulated. One isolate was identified as somatic type 3, and another was type 3,4,7; both had unique HhaI DNA fingerprint profiles. Nineteen isolates expressed somatic type 1 antigen; HhaI profiles of all type 1 isolates were identical to each other and to the HhaI profile of the reference somatic type 1, strain X-73. The 19 type 1 isolates were differentiated by sequential digestion of DNA with HpaII; four HpaII fingerprint profiles were obtained. The HpaII profile of one isolate was identical to the HpaII profile of strain X-73. Incidence of P. multocida somatic type 1 in raptors suggests that this type may be prevalent in other wildlife or wildlife environments.

Comparison of DNA fingerprints and somatic serotypes of serogroup B and E Pasteurella multocida isolates.
The DNA fingerprint profiles and somatic serotypes of 71 Pasteurella multocida capsule serogroup B isolates, 13 capsule serogroup E isolates, and 16 somatic reference serotype strains were compared. Each of the 16 reference somatic serotypes had a unique DNA fingerprint profile with the HhaI restriction endonuclease. Fifty-four serogroup B isolates (isolated from classical cases of hemorrhagic ...

Evaluation of a Trivalent Pasteurella multocida Vaccine Consisted of Serotypes 1, 3 and 4.
An inactivated trivalent fowl cholera vaccine consisted of serotypes 1, 3 and 4 Pasteurella multocida strains was prepared. The vaccine provided 70-100% protection against challenge with homologous starins. ELISA assay showed a considerable increase in antibody titer after towice vaccination of 8 weeks chickens. It was found that the trivalent vaccine can induce immunogenic response in vaccinat...
متن کاملCharacterization of Pasteurella multocida isolates from wetland ecosystems during 1996 to 1999.
We cultured 126 Pasteurella multocida isolates, 92 from water and 34 from sediment samples collected from wetlands in the Pacific and Central flyways of the United States between 1996 and 1999. Most (121) of the isolates were P. multocida serotype 1, but serotypes 3, 3/4, 10, and 11 were also found. Many (82) of the isolates were further characterized by DNA fingerprinting procedures and tested...
متن کاملCharacterisation of avian Pasteurella multocida strains with PCR-RFLP analysis of the ompH gene.
The 16 somatic serotype type strains and 60 field isolates of Pasteurella multocida, representing various avian species and geographic regions in Hungary, were characterised by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis of the ompH gene with DraI restriction endonuclease. The type strains yielded eight different (I-VIII) profiles. Strains whose PCR fragment was uncut by Dr...
