Prevention of experimental haemorrhagic septicaemia with a live vaccine   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
Pasteurella multocida serotype B:3,4 isolated from a fallow deer in England was used as a vaccine to prevent haemorrhagic septicaemia. The deer strain was less virulent for calves than typical serotype B:2 of haemorrhagic septicaemia strains. It elicited antibodies in cattle that protected mice against serotype B:2 infection. The live deer vaccine containing 2 X 10(7) viable organisms per dose was used to immunise calves. Six months after vaccination, five of six calves were protected against serotype B:2 challenge. Two calves challenged nine months after vaccination survived the same challenge. The live vaccine was more efficacious than an alum precipitated vaccine in protecting calves against B:2 challenge.  相似文献

Although no clinical signs of atrophic rhinitis (AR) were recognized in 2- and 5-week-old pigs, approximately 60% of 2- to 6-month-old pigs showed clinical signs of AR in an affected pig farm. None of the pigs had normal turbinate at slaughter. Bordetella bronchiseptica was not isolated from any of the pigs before onset and incipient stage of the outbreak (2-week to 2-month-old). Pasteurella multocida of capsular type D was not isolated from any of those pigs. However, toxigenic P. multocida of capsular type A was isolated from a number of the pigs immediately before onset and incipient stage of the outbreak. Thirty-six-day-old primary specific-pathogen-free pigs were inoculated intranasally with a toxigenic type A P. multocida isolated from a 5-week-old pig. Severe nasal turbinate atrophy was observed in those pigs which were necropsied at 3 weeks post-inoculation. This is the first report on outbreak of severe nasal turbinate atrophy induced by toxigenic type A P. multocida in Japan.  相似文献

Separation of the capsular antigen and endotoxin from saline extracts of Pasteurella multocida type B was achieved by fractional precipitation from aqueous solution by addition of polar organic solvents. Biological tests for the presence of endotoxin showed that it was absent from capsular antigen preparations so obtained. Properties of the capsular antigen suggested that it was a high molecular weight acidic polysaccharide. The solvent fractionation method was found to be equally applicable to separation of capsular antigen and endotoxin of P multocida type E. The type B capsular antigen in the presence of aluminium hydroxide gel adjuvant, was poorly immunogenic in rabbits. In cattle, however, a dose-dependent serological response was obtained as demonstrated by the mouse passive protection test.  相似文献

Four outbreaks of hemorrhagic septicemia caused by Pasteurella multocida multocida occurred in a population of 1,800 fallow deer (Dama dama) during 1992-1996. A total of 340 fallow deer were submitted for postmortem examination. Pasteurellosis was diagnosed in 273 of 312 deer suspected of having septicemia. Pasteurella multocida was isolated from 257 animals, and the diagnosis was based on typical pathologic changes alone in the other 16 animals. Pasteurella multocida was isolated in pure culture from 219 of 248 samples of cerebrospinal fluid. Eighteen animals were observed moribund with severe depression, foamy nasal discharge, and respiratory distress, and 257 were found dead. Major clinical signs and pathologic changes included extensive swelling of the head and the neck and peracute or acute septic pneumonia, petechial and ecchymotic hemorrhages on serous membranes, and severely hemorrhagic adrenal glands and abomasum. Rhinitis and necrotic pharyngeal mucosae were common. Histologically, the most advanced lesions were in the nasal mucosa and pharynx. The swelling of the head and the neck arose from a diffuse cellulitis in the subcutaneous and intermuscular tissues. The earliest lesions in the lungs included large numbers of bacteria in the pulmonary capillaries, but various degrees of fibrinous exudation to the alveoli and infiltration with heterophils usually were observed.  相似文献

Antibodies against Pasteurella multocida capsular types B and E, which cause hemorrhagic septicemia, were demonstrated in a high percentage of sera from domestic feeder calves. Since the calves had not been vaccinated with any Pasteurella organisms, the antibodies were considered to be naturally acquired. The antibodies were demonstrated by passively immunizing mice and by indirect hemagglutination and agglutination tests. Sera from 81% (44 of 54) of the calves protected mice that were challenge exposed with a capsular type B organism, and sera from 91% (49 of 54) of the calves protected mice that were challenge exposed with a capsular type E organism. Indirect hemagglutination and agglutination tests demonstrated antibody in nearly all sera. Since capsular type E organisms have been isolated only in Africa and there is only 1 report of capsular type B isolation from cattle in the United States, these organisms were not considered likely sources of the antigenic stimulation that provoked production of these antibodies.  相似文献

Aluminum hydroxide adjuvant vaccines containing endotoxin-free capsular antigens of Pasteurella multocida, types B and E, were administered to cattle. Dose dependent serological responses were observed which were similar for both antigens. The immunised cattle were subjected to intravenous challenge by a virulent type E strain. All animals which received the highest vaccine dose survived and all unimmunised control animals died and a vaccine dose-response relationship was obtained. The results of passive mouse protection and indirect haemagglutination tests (type E) on the sera of immunised cattle corresponded with the degree of protection against challenge of the cattle.  相似文献

Eighty-one isolates presumptively identified as Pasteurella multocida from a variety of diseases in animals in Zimbabwe were subjected to biochemical characterization, capsular typing and RAPD analysis. The majority of isolates (over 80%) were assigned into named taxa and were predominantly P. multocida subsp. multocida and P. multocida subsp. septica, whilst the remainder were unassigned. Serogroup A was predominant among the three capsular types (A, B and D) of P. multocida detected. Three main RAPD clusters and three subclusters were observed among the majority of isolates (93.8%), whilst the remainder was found to be weakly related. Nine different groups of strains with similar RAPD profiles (100% similarity) were also observed. The reference strain of capsular serogroup F clustered with the reference strain of P. multocida subsp. septica, whilst all other serogroups clustered with reference strains of subsp. multocida and gallicida. Notably, serogroups A and D were observed to be closely related to the reference strain of subsp. multocida. The relationship between biotype, capsular type, host origin and disease manifestation was not clear-cut. However, most pig isolates of subsp. multocida clustered together as did most cattle isolates of subsp. multocida. RAPD tended to separate subsp. multocida from septica.  相似文献

The outer membrane protein (OMP) profiles of two strains of capsular type A Pasteurella multocida isolated from the lungs of pigs with enzootic pneumonia were studied. Sarkosyl extracted OMPs from P. multocida grown under iron-restricted and iron-replete conditions were subjected to sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Western blot analysis. Results showed that the iron-regulated outer membrane proteins (IROMPs) with molecular masses of 74 kDa, 94 kDa, 99 kDa and 109 kDa were expressed by strain A52, while 74 kDa, 82 kDa, 94 kDa and 99 kDa IROMPs were expressed by strain B80. Swine immune sera, obtained from pigs which were first immunized with a polyvalent P. multocida type A and type D bacterin and subsequently challenged with type A strain of P. multocida, contained antibodies against the IROMPs. These antibodies cross-reacted with the IROMPs expressed by avian strain P1059 of P. multocida. Convalescent-phase serum obtained from turkeys which survived fowl cholera, also cross-reacted with the IROMPs from porcine strains of P. multocida. These results suggested that IROMPs from porcine and avian strains of P. multocida may share common epitopes that were recognized by swine immune serum as well as turkey convalescent-phase serum.  相似文献

In the United Kingdom, badgers are implicated in the transmission of Mycobacterium bovis to cattle, but little information is available on the potential role of other wild mammals. This paper presents the results of the largest systematic UK survey of M. bovis infection in other wild mammals. Mammal carcasses (4715) from throughout the South-West region of England were subjected to a systematic post mortem examination, microbiological culture of tissues and spoligotyping of isolates. Infection was confirmed in fox, stoat, polecat, common shrew, yellow-necked mouse, wood mouse, field vole, grey squirrel, roe deer, red deer, fallow deer and muntjac. Prevalence in deer may have been underestimated because the majority were incomplete carcasses, which reduced the likelihood of detecting infection. Infected cases were found in Wiltshire, Somerset, Devon and Cornwall, Gloucestershire and Herefordshire. Lesions were found in a high proportion of spoligotype-positive fallow, red and roe deer, and a single fox, stoat and muntjac. M. bovis spoligotypes occurred in a similar frequency of occurrence to that in cattle and badgers. Data on prevalence, pathology, abundance and ecology of wild mammals was integrated in a semi-quantitative risk assessment of the likelihood of transmission to cattle relative to badgers. Although most species presented a relatively low risk, higher values and uncertainty associated with muntjac, roe, red and in particular fallow deer, suggest they require further investigation. The results suggest that deer should be considered as potential, although probably localised, sources of infection for cattle.  相似文献

Two hundred and five isolates of Pasteurella multocida from pigs were phenotypically and genetically characterised by determining their biovar, capsular type, virulence-associated genes and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) profiles. All isolates were identified as P multocida subspecies multocida and most were assigned to biovar 3 (58 per cent) and biovar 2 (39.5 per cent). Biovar 1 represented 2.4 per cent of the isolates. According to the capsular type, the great majority of the isolates (79.0 per cent) belonged to capsular type A, 18.5 per cent belonged to capsular type D and 2.4 per cent were of capsular type F. All isolates harboured ompH, psl, oma87, ptfA, nanB, nanH, tonB, hgbA, sodA and sodC genes, while none of them possessed the transferrin-binding protein gene tbpA. The prevalence of toxA, pfhaA and hgbB genes was variable (7.8, 40.5 and 60.5 per cent of the isolates, respectively). After PFGE typing, isolates of biovar 2 and 3 were grouped in two different clusters (A and B) at a level of 45 per cent similarity. In addition, isolates of biovar 2 and 3 exhibited statistically significant differences (P<0.05) in the virulence-associated hgbB and pfhA genes (biovar 3 was hgbB(+) pfhA(-), while biovar 2 was hgbB- pfhA(+)).  相似文献

A long-acting oxytetracycline formulation was evaluated for control of rhinitis induced experimentally in pigs with a capsular type A, toxin-negative, low-passage strain of Pasteurella multocida. The pigs were 6 to 7 weeks old and were naturally infected with Haemophilus parasuis. The H parasuis infection was thought to predispose to establishment of P multocida in the nasal cavity. A long-acting oxytetracycline formulation was given IM at the rate of 20 mg/kg, 4 times at 5-day intervals. Medication reduced (P less than 0.05) the severity of turbinate atrophy and the proportion of pigs with P multocida and H parasuis in their nasal cavities. Numbers of colonies of P multocida and H parasuis isolated were also less in medicated pigs.  相似文献

A total of 100 isolates of Pasteurella multocida from various ruminant species (cattle, buffalo and sheep) belonging to different parts of country were identified using Pasteurella multocida-PCR (PM-PCR) and capsular PCR assays. PM-PCR revealed an amplicon of approximately 460 bp in all the isolates tested. As regards capsular PCR, 36 of 38 cattle isolates and 30 of 34 buffalo isolates were found to belong to capsular serogroup B whereas rest of the cattle and buffalo isolates belonged to serogroup A of P. multocida. In case of sheep, a total of 26 out of 28 isolates were positive for serogroup A specific PCR while remaining 2 amplified a PCR product specific for serogroup F of P. multocida. All the isolates were subjected to antibiotic sensitivity testing using 17 different antibiotics. Enrofloxacin was found to be most potent antibiotic as it was effective against 94% of the isolates followed by ofloxacin (93%), chloramphenicol (93%), doxycycline (89%), tetracycline (86%) and ciprofloxacin (84%). Vancomycin, bacitracin and sulfadiazine were ineffective against P. multocida isolates showing 84%, 75% and 82% resistance, respectively. Further, the antibiogram also revealed the development of resistance against multiple drugs among various isolates of the organism.  相似文献

AIMS: To examine pigs at slaughter in New Zealand for the presence of Pasteurella multocida, and to determine for isolates, their biochemical profiles, somatic and capsular types, and the presence or absence of the HSB and toxA genes, associated with haemorrhagic septicaemia (HS) and progressive atrophic rhinitis (PAR), respectively. METHODS: Swabs from 173 lungs, 158 palatine tonsils and 82 nasal passages of pigs at two abattoirs in New Zealand were cultured for P. multocida using conventional techniques, and isolated colonies were subjected to biochemical tests for identification of biovars. Somatic serotyping was conducted using an agar gel immunodiffusion (AGID) test. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays were used to confirm phenotypic identification of colonies using species-specific primers, capsule type using serogroup-specific primers and multiplex PCR, and to test for the presence of HSB and toxA genes. RESULTS: Pasteurella multocida was isolated from 11/173 (6.4%) lung, 32/158 (20.2%) palatine tonsil and 5/82 (6.1 %) nasal swab samples, a total of 48 isolates from 413 samples (11.6%). Isolation rates per farm ranged from 1-53% of tissue samples collected from pigs 5-6 months of age. On phenotypic characterisation, isolates were allocated to seven main biovars, viz 1, 2, 3, 5, 9, 12, and a dulcitol-negative variant of Biovar 8, the majority (30/48) being Biovar 3. Of the 42 isolates for which somatic serotyping was conducted, 10% were Serovar 1, 79% were Serovar 3, 2% were Serovar 6,1, 2% were Serovar 12, and 7% could not be typed. All 48 isolates were confirmed as P. multocida using a species-specific PCR. In the capsular multiplex PCR, 92% of isolates were Capsular (Cap) type A, 2% were Cap D, and 6% could not be typed. None of the samples were positive for the HSB or toxA genes. CONCLUSION: Serovars or capsular types of P. multocida associated with HS or PAR in pigs were not detected. Establishment of species-specific, capsular and toxin PCR assays allowed the rapid screening of isolates of P. multocida, while serotyping provided an additional tool for epidemiological and tracing purposes.  相似文献

Study of the toxin-producing ability of Pasteurella multocida in mice   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
Cell-free sonicated extracts and broth cultures of Pasteurella multocida strains of pig origin were examined for their lienotoxicity in mice. P. multocida strains represented capsular types A and D with or without dermonecrotoxic (DNT) activity in the guinea pig skin test. Mouse lienotoxicity test was suitable for determining the toxigenicity of P. multocida strains only when bacterium-free extracts were tested. In that case both toxigenic type A and D strains were lethal to intravenously inoculated mice and caused a remarkable reduction in spleen mass when sublethal doses were used. The extracts of atoxic strains were not lethal and induced splenic hyperplasia. By testing viable cells no correlation was demonstrable between toxin production and virulence of P. multocida to mice. In one experiment the concentrated sterile culture fluids of a toxigenic type D P. multocida and a toxigenic B. bronchiseptica strain were compared. The former caused deaths and splenic atrophy among mice, while the latter was nontoxic and induced slight hyperplasia of the spleen. This fact indicates that P. multocida secretes its toxin into the culture fluid.  相似文献

Fattening specific pathogen-free derived pigs were injected intramuscularly with dermonecrotoxin of Pasteurella multocida, capsular type D. Ten days later, the nasal ventral turbinates and liver were examined histologically. A moderate turbinate atrophy was observed due to an increased number of osteoclasts and the absence of intramembranous bone apposition. Liver lesions were limited to some hepatocyte necrosis, sinusoid neutrophil infiltration and Kupffer cell hypertrophy. This study demonstrated that adult pigs are sensitive to P. multocida dermonecrotoxin.  相似文献

Due to the occurrence of the infection of Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis among domestic ruminants and the rapid development of farmed deer industry and the market of cloven-hoofed game we have carried surveys of paratuberculosis, beginning in 1997, in the most common four species of wild ruminants in the Czech Republic [Pavlik et al., Vet. Microbiol. 77 (2000) 231-251]. From 1999 the prevalence of paratuberculosis has been slightly reduced in all three types of husbandry of wild ruminants. Nevertheless paratuberculosis has been diagnosed in wild ruminants in three districts, in four game parks and in five farms. M. a. paratuberculosis was isolated from 128 (5.3%) out of 2,403 wild ruminants of four animal species: 106 red deer, 2 roe deer, 4 fallow deer and 16 mouflons. In red deer farms, the highest number of clinical paratuberculosis cases was in yearling deer. RFLP type B-C1 of M. a. paratuberculosis predominated during the second period (1999-2001) in all types of husbandry with no relationship to wild ruminant species. New "cattle" RFLP types B-C5 and B-C16 of M. a. paratuberculosis were described in infected farmed red deer and one "intermediate" RFLP type R-I4 in fallow deer from one game park. The survival of M. a. paratuberculosis was found to be 4 months during winter in the pasture after destocking of all cattle infected with paratuberculosis. We found that non-vertebrates, wild ruminants or non-ruminant wildlife can be vectors and potentially become a risk factor in the spread of M. a. paratuberculosis infection.  相似文献

79 strains of P. multocida were investigated, mostly isolated from porcine nasal cavities, and a mannose-resistant hemagglutination with guinea pig and human group 0, but not with porcine erythrocytes was found. Fimbriae as adhesins were demonstrated only on 2 strains. A correlation between capsular type, hemagglutination, fimbriation and toxigenicity on the examined P. multocida strains was not observed. Three strains were investigated for the adherence to the nasal mucosa of neonatal pigs; aggregates shown by scanning electron microscopy indicate colonization; a correlation of adherence with surface proteins and slime production of P. multocida is discussed.  相似文献

Experimental infections with Bordetella bronchiseptica and/or toxigenic type D Pasteurella multocida were studied in 2- and 4-month-old primary specific-pathogen-free pigs. None of the 2-month-old pigs inoculated with B. bronchiseptica or P. multocida alone developed turbinate atrophy. All the pigs inoculated with B. bronchiseptica (10(7) CFU/head) and P. multocida (10(9) CFU/head for 5 consecutive days) together, however, developed clinical and post-mortem signs of atrophic rhinitis (AR) similar to the naturally occurring disease. Slight to severe turbinate atrophy was observed in the 4-month-old pigs inoculated with B. bronchiseptica and P. multocida (at the same concentration as above) at necropsy.  相似文献

Pasteurella multocida is a widespread respiratory pathogen in pigs associated with atrophic rhinitis and contributing to aggravation of the pulmonary lesions. The aims of the present study were to characterize isolates of P. multocida from porcine bronchopneumonia by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), PCR based capsular typing and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and to compare clonal complexes outlined with the type of histological lung lesions to investigate if a correlation between clonal lineages and lesions might exist. Isolates of P. multocida were obtained from cases of cranioventrally located porcine bronchopneumonia. All lung lesions were described and classified according to histological lesions. A total of 139 isolates, from lung (n=111), pericardial sac (n=21) and kidney (n=7) of 111 pigs were described using PFGE with ApaI as the restriction enzyme. Furthermore, 20 and 29 isolates were characterized by capsular serotyping and multilocus sequence typing, respectively. PFGE demonstrated 15 different clusters showing 50% or more similarity. All selected isolates were of capsular serotype A and only three main sequence types (ST) were detected among the isolates. Associations were not found between histopathology and clonal complexes of P. multocida. In conclusion, PFGE demonstrated a high diversity of genotypes of P. multocida associated with porcine bronchopneumonia. However, isolates obtained mainly belonged to few STs, indicating that isolates of P. multocida associated with porcine bronchopneumonia originates from a limited number of clonal lineages and therefore might have adapted to porcine hosts. No correlation was demonstrated between genotypes and types of lesions, and extra-pulmonary spreading was only rarely demonstrated.  相似文献
