In this study, susceptibilities of Pasteurella multocida, Mannheimia haemolytica and Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae to enrofloxacin and orbifloxacin were tested using an agar diffusion method with the commercial disks and a broth microdilution method. Good correlation between the 2 methods for enrofloxacin and orbifloxacin was observed for P. multocida (r = -0.743 and -0.818, respectively), M....

Pneumonia is a leading cause of loss to the sheep and cattle industry throughout the world. Mannheimia (Pasteurella) haemolytica is one of the most important respiratory pathogens of domestic ruminants and causes serious outbreaks of acute pneumonia in neonatal, weaned and growing lambs, calves, and goats. M. haemolytica is also an important cause of pneumonia in adult animals. Transportation, ...

  This study evaluated the nasopharyngeal microbial flora and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of the one hundred and thirty Holstein calves with dairy calf pneumonia from dairy farms of Mashhad Suburb between September 2002 and August 2003 . The most common micro-organisms isolated were Pasteurella multocida 80 (61.54%), Mannheimia haemolytica 41 (31.54%), Bacillus sp. 15 (11.54%), Staphy...

abstract aims: bovine mastitis continues to be the most costly disease to the dairy farmers. it dominates in iran as one of the most prevalent diseases in dairy cattle among the dairy farms. mastitis treatment with antibiotics leads to the development of antibiotic resistant strains and consumer health problem. this study was performed for the first time to analyze in vitro effects of hydro-alc...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to objectively compare methodological approaches that might be utilized in designing an antimicrobial resistance (AMR) surveillance program in beef feedlot cattle. Specifically, four separate comparisons were made to investigate their potential impact on estimates for prevalence of AMR. These included investigating potential differences between 2 differe...

Mannheimia haemolytica é uma bactéria comensal do trato respiratório de bovinos e associada à infecção desses animais, podendo causar pneumonia, pleurite septicemia. É considerado o principal agente causador doenças respiratórias em bovinos. Relata-se um caso septicemia bezerro causado por M. haemolytica. No exame clínico detectou-se taquicardia, taquipneia, respiração abdominal, hipertermia de...

OBJECTIVES To determine effects of selectin inhibitor TBC1269 on neutrophil infiltration, and neutrophil-associated injury during pneumonia induced by Mannheimia haemolytica and concentration of antimicrobial anionic peptide (AAP) in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) as well as antimicrobial activity of BALF from healthy (control) neonatal calves, neonatal calves with M haemolytica-induced pn...

In April 2002, an investigation into an outbreak of acute respiratory disease in goats and sheep in Milae (Afar), Ethiopia was conducted. The investigation involved 4 flocks (722 sheep and 750 goats in total) and comprised the disease history, clinical and post-mortem examination, and microbiological analysis of nasal swabs, lung lesions, and pleural fluid samples. Clinically diseased animals e...

In this study, we determined the prevalence of bovine respiratory disease (BRD)-associated viral and bacterial pathogens in cattle and characterized the genetic profiles, antimicrobial susceptibilities, and nature of antimicrobial resistance determinants in collected bacteria. Nasopharyngeal swab and lung tissue samples from 68 BRD mortalities in Alberta, Canada (n = 42), Texas (n = 6), and Neb...

this study evaluated the nasopharyngeal microbial flora and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of the one hundred and thirty holstein calves with dairy calf pneumonia from dairy farms of mashhad suburb between september 2002 and august 2003 . the most common micro-organisms isolated were pasteurella multocida 80 (61.54%), mannheimia haemolytica 41 (31.54%), bacillus sp. 15 (11.54%), staphylo...
