ORIGINAL_ARTICLE The prevalence of Pasteurella multocida from farm pigs in Serbia The investigations covered a total of 234 lungs from necropsied pigs with different pneumonic lesions, from 6 farrow-to-finish pig farms during 2013 and 2014. The samples were inoculated on selective culture media and aerobically incubated at 37oC and in carbon dioxide condition. The isolated bacterial colonies were further characterised morphologically and biochemically. The identification was confirmed using the BBL Crystal, E/N, G/P ID Kit (Becton Dickinson). For determination of the type of Pasteurella multocida, the PCR method was used. The findings showed that bacteria were isolated from 202 (86%) out of 234 examined lung samples. The pure isolates of Pasteurella multocida were obtained from 71 (35 %) samples. Out of the remaining 29 (14%) examined lung samples, 9, 8, 7 and 5 examined lung samples were shown as mixed cultures of Pasteurella multocida and Streptococcus spp., Arcanobacterium pyogenes, Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae and Haemophilus parasuis, respectively. The PCR method confirmed that all 15 investigated strains of P. multocida belong to type A. https://macvetrev.mk/Files/Article/2020/10.1515/macvetrev-2015-0063/macvetrev-2015-0063.pdf 2016-03-15T09:00:00 39 42 10.2478/macvetrev-2015-0063 Pasteurella multocida lung pig Oliver Radanovic radanovic.oliver@gmail.com false 1 Institute of Veterinary Medicine of Serbia, Vojvode Toze 14, 11000 Belgrade, Serbia LEAD_AUTHOR Jadranka Zutic false 2 Institute of Veterinary Medicine of Serbia, Vojvode Toze 14, 11000 Belgrade, Serbia AUTHOR Dobrila Jakic-Dimic false 3 Institute of Veterinary Medicine of Serbia, Vojvode Toze 14, 11000 Belgrade, Serbia AUTHOR Branislav Kureljusic false 4 Institute of Veterinary Medicine of Serbia, Vojvode Toze 14, 11000 Belgrade, Serbia AUTHOR Bozidar Savic false 5 Institute of Veterinary Medicine of Serbia, Vojvode Toze 14, 11000 Belgrade, Serbia AUTHOR Bochev, I.
