  • Title: Factors affecting the immunogenicity of Pasteurella haemolytica in mice.
    Author: Cameron CM, Bester FJ, Du Toit DJ.
    Journal: Onderstepoort J Vet Res; 1984 Jun; 51(2):97-102. PubMed ID: 6493732.
    Abstract:
    An appreciable level of immunity from intraperitoneal infection with Pasteurella haemolytica was established in mice by using a vaccine prepared in a conventional bacteriological culture medium, with aluminium hydroxide gel as adjuvant. The level of immunity could not be elevated by using bacteria grown in tissue culture media, enriched brain heart infusion broth, the addition of serum to the media or by using bacteria that had been harvested in the logarithmic growth phase. Although various extracts of the bacteria elicited a distinct immunity, the immunogenicity of vaccines containing bacteria could not be enhanced by augmentation with those products. The potential application of the vaccine in cattle and sheep is discussed.
