| pasteurella haemolytica a1 and bovine respiratory disease: pathogenesis. | the severe fibrinonecrotic pneumonia associated with pneumonic pasteurellosis usually results from colonization of the lower respiratory tract by pasteurella haemolytica biotype a, serotype 1(a1). despite recent research efforts, the authors lack a detailed understanding of the interactions and host response to p. haemolytica in the respiratory tract. the authors hypothesize that management and environmental stress factors or viral infection alters the upper respiratory tract (urt) epithelium al ... | 1992 | 1548621 |
| alveolar macrophage and neutrophil interactions in pasteurella haemolytica-induced endothelial cell injury. | pasteurella haemolytica, the cause of fibrinous pleuropneumonia in cattle, produces extensive microvascular endothelial cell damage. this study investigated endothelial cell-leukocyte interactions by using a millicell coculture assay system that modeled the bovine pulmonary alveolar defense system and showed that p. haemolytica-mediated endothelial cell damage was enhanced by the presence of alveolar macrophages, presumably due to soluble alveolar macrophage products. the alveolar macrophage-enh ... | 1992 | 1552194 |
| in utero infection due to pasteurella multocida in the first trimester of pregnancy: case report and review. | to our knowledge, we report the first case of in utero infection in humans due to pasteurella multocida in the first trimester of pregnancy. after antibiotic therapy was initiated, the mother recovered rapidly from bacteremia but the fetus was spontaneously aborted. pathological examination of the fetus and placenta revealed acute deciduitis and chorionitis, indicating an infectious etiology for the abortion. the clinical and pathological features of this case are compared with those of the five ... | 1992 | 1554837 |
| the effect of the intra-mammary inoculation of lactating ewes with pasteurella haemolytica isolates from different sources. | lactating welsh mountain ewes were inoculated, 3 weeks after lambing, with between 1000 and 10,000 colony forming units of a number of isolates of pasteurella haemolytica. isolates from severe, acute mastitis in a ewe, from ovine and bovine pneumonic lesions and from the nasal cavity of healthy lambs, all gave rise to severe, acute mastitis that was clinically indistinguishable from that seen naturally. two isolates from the milk of ewes with subclinical mastitis did not cause clinical disease a ... | 1992 | 1556261 |
| [detection of the nucleolar activity in alveolar macrophages of swine]. | with the help of the toluidine blue-staining-technique different characteristic shapes of alveolar macrophage nucleoli were detected, indicating differences in the rrna synthesis activity of these cells. after application of a pasteurella multocida aerosol the percentage of alveolar macrophages with a high rrna synthesis increased. no correlation between the nucleolar activity and the efficacy of the clearance of aerogenously administered pasteurella could be measured. | 1992 | 1559462 |
| conditions for transformation of pasteurella multocida by electroporation. | conditions for electroporation of plasmid dna into pasteurella multocida were determined for use in developing a cloning system to study virulence factors of p. multocida. the highest efficiency of transformation (1.25 x 10(7) cfu/micrograms dna) was obtained when 7.6 x 10(10) cells of p. multocida strain r473 were electroporated at 12.5 kv/cm (10 ms, 5 ng of pvm109). transformation efficiencies of cells prepared at mid-log-phase were approximately 0.5 log10 lower than early, late, or stationary ... | 1992 | 1560754 |
| bite wounds and infection. | one of every two americans will be bitten by an animal or by another person at some point. bites account for approximately 1% of all visits to emergency rooms; injuries inflicted by dogs are most common. the bacteria involved in infection of bite wounds include pasteurella multocida, staphylococcus aureus, staphylococcus intermedius, alpha-hemolytic streptococci, capnocytophaga canimorsus, and other members of the oral flora. anaerobic bacteria are present in approximately one-third of bite woun ... | 1992 | 1562653 |
| bacteremia due to pasteurella multocida. | pasteurella multocida should be considered as a possible etiologic agent in any infection that is the result of an animal bite or scratch. because of its opportunistic capability, it should be included among the possible pathogens in bacteremia, particularly in any patient with immunosuppression or liver cirrhosis, especially if there is a history of animal exposure. | 1992 | 1566154 |
| comparative susceptibility of caponized and uncaponized tom turkeys to pasteurella multocida. | when susceptibility to virulent pasteurella multocida was compared, there was no significant (p greater than 0.05) difference between caponized and uncaponized tom turkeys. neither was there any significant (p greater than 0.05) difference between the surviving caponized and uncaponized toms in the development of serum anti-p. multocida antibody. however, at 28 weeks of age, the average live body weight of the caponized toms was significantly (p less than 0.05) lower than that of the uncaponized ... | 1992 | 1567314 |
