Pasteurella multocida is isolated from a variety of disease conditions from different animal species in our diagnostic laboratory. In order to determine serogroup distribution among the isolates, an indirect haemagglutination test using glutaraldehyde-fixed sheep red blood cells was employed. A serological examination of 79 isolates revealed that 47/79 were of capsular serogroup A, 11/79 capsular serogroup D, 4/79 capsular serogroup B and 17/79 were untypable strains. None of the isolates belonged to either serogroup E or F. All those from cases of classical pasteurellosis could be grouped, but a significantly high proportion of those which originated from companion animals were untypable. The significance of these results is discussed. This report appears to be the first detailed information on the prevalence of various serogroups of P. multocida in animals in southern Africa.
在我们的诊断实验室中，多杀性巴氏杆菌是从不同动物物种的多种疾病状况中分离出来的。为了确定分离株之间的血清群分布，采用了使用戊二醛固定的绵羊红细胞的间接血凝试验。对79株分离株的血清学检查显示，79株中有47株属于荚膜血清群A，11株属于荚膜血清群D，4株属于荚膜血清群B，17株为不可分型菌株。没有分离株属于血清群E或F。所有来自经典巴氏杆菌病病例的菌株都可以分型，但来自伴侣动物的菌株中，有相当高比例的菌株不可分型。讨论了这些结果的意义。本报告似乎是关于南部非洲动物中多杀性巴氏杆菌各种血清群流行情况的第一份详细信息。
