  • Title: Immunogenicity of a chaotropically extracted protective antigen(s) of Pasteurella multocida type A (bovine origin) against experimental pasteurellosis in mice.
    Author: Mukkur TK.
    Journal: J Gen Microbiol; 1979 Jul; 113(1):37-43. PubMed ID: 501332.
    Abstract:
    Immunization of mice with a potassium thiocyanate extract of Pasteurella multocida type A (bovine strain) imparted complete protection against an experimental challenge infection with 1.6 x 10(3) colony-forming units of the homologous strain. Formalin-treated vaccine (one or two doses) was much less effective. Significantly higher bactericidal antibody titres were observed in the sera of mice immunized with the extract compared with those given the vaccine. The bactericidal activity was localized in the IgM and IgG fractions. The extract consisted of protein(s) and carbohydrate(s) and on immunoelectrophoresis displayed at least three antigenetically distinct components.
