مستخلص: | An agar gel-diffusion test (AGDT) and an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were utilized to detect serum antibodies against Pasteurella multocida in naturally infected rabbits derived originally from a Pasteurella-free colony. The antigen used in both assays was purified from a serotype 3 (P-1059) strain of P. multocida. Among 47 serum samples tested 15 (32%) were seropositive; 12 (26%) of which were both AGDT and ELISA-positive, while 3 (6%) were ELISA-positive only. All rabbits examined were normal clinically and negative to repeated nasal cultures, but subsequent cultures at necropsy demonstrated the presence of P. multocida in 11 of the AGDT-positive rabbits and in 14 of the ELISA-positive rabbits. The organism was isolated most frequently from the naso-oropharynx and the tympanic bullae. Serotyping of isolates recovered from the nasopharynx were determined to be serotype 3 or 3,12. Ten seronegative rabbits also were necropsied and none were found harboring P. multocida. These preliminary data indicate that the application of an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay may prove efficacious in identifying apparently healthy, consistently nasal culture-negative rabbits as subclinical carriers of P. multocida. |
