Abstract excerpt
A total of 100 field isolates of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae isolated from lung tissues of pigs with severe pleuropneumonia were serotyped by slide agglutination and precipitation tests. Polymerase chain reactions for apxICA, apxIICA, apxIIICA, apxIBD and apxIIIBD genes were used to determine their genotype prevalence. Serotypes 2 (56 isolates), 5 (28 isolates) and 6 (11 isolates) were the most common; only...
