Improved hemagglutination test for identifying type A strains of Pasteurella multocida.
نویسنده
چکیده
A simple, improved, indirect hemagglutination test is described for the recognition of Type A strains of Pasteurella multocida. It involves the treatment of mucoid cultures with testicular hyaluronidase. Hydrolysis of the capsular hyaluronic acid presumably releases the specific antigen for adsorption to erythrocytes.

Simplified identification of somatic varieties of Pasteurella multocida causing fowl cholera.
Representative type strains as well as field strains of Pasteurella multocida from fowl cholera were examined by the indirect hemagglutination procedure and by a rapid plate agglutination test. The former method identified the specific capsular or K substance, and the latter identified the somatic antigens. Inagglutinable organisms were made agglutinable for the rapid procedure by treatment wit...
متن کاملCoagglutination test for identification of Pasteurella multocida associated with hemorrhagic septicemia.
Two serogroups (B and E) of Pasteurella multocida associated with hemorrhagic septicemia in cattle were differentiated by a coagglutination test with antibody-coated staphylococci. The group antigen was soluble and heat stable. It was not detectable in unencapsulated cells or their heated extracts. Adsorbed onto human type O erythrocytes, it could be demonstrated by an indirect hemagglutination...
متن کاملDiversity of caprine and ovine Pasteurella multocida isolates based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing
In this study, to increase information about the relationship between caprine and ovine isolates of Pasteurella multocida, 16S rRNA gene sequencing of 9 goats (5) and sheep (4) isolates were investigated. Also, capsular type and toxAgene presentation was studied in this paper. All isolates, except one, belong to capsular type A, and toxA+ strain distributed among strains were isolated from both...
متن کاملLack of cross-immunity among Pasteurella multocida type A strains.
Active and passive protection studies in mice using sheep antisera revealed that the immunological relationship among Pasteurella multocida Type A strains could not be correlated with their serological relationship as determined by a haemagglutination or an agglutination test. Furthermore, strains possessing similar phenol extractable antigens or heat stable antigens did not provide complete cr...
متن کاملMolecular identification and capsular typing of Pasteurella multocida isolates from sheep pneumonia in Iran
Pasteurella multocida is known as one of the main organisms causing pneumonia in sheep. As immunity in pasteurellosis is serogroup specific, identification of prevalent capsular group among endemic areas is essential. The aim of this study was to molecular identification and determine of the capsular type of the P. multocida strains isolated from sheep pneumonia in Iran. Bacteriological and bio...
