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...
