Intra-specific diversity and host specificity within Pasteurella haemolytica based on variation of capsular polysaccharide, lipopolysaccharide and outer-membrane proteins.

Abstract excerpt

Intra-specific diversity within Pasteurella haemolytica was assessed by analysing variation in the capsular polysaccharide (serotypes), lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and outer-membrane proteins (OMPs) of 184 isolates recovered from cattle and sheep. Four 12 serotypes comprised 83% of the total number of isolates, including A1 and A2 as the most frequently recovered serotypes from cattle and sheep, respectively. Nine...
