Immunohistochemical evaluation of lesions in the gastrointestinal tract of buffalo (<i>Bubalus bubalis</i>) calves orally exposed to <i>Pasteurella multocida</i> B:2
Abstract:The gastrointestinal lesions and bacterial distribution of buffalo calves were evaluated histologically using immunoperoxidase, following oral exposure to wild-type Pasteurella multocida B:2 at 10 9 cfu/mL in phosphate buffered saline. The lesions were basically of mild to severe mucohaemorrhagic abomasitis and enteritis.The lesions were confirmed to be associated with the inoculated P. multocida B:2, using the immunoperoxidase technique. P. multocida B:2 antigen was detected not only in the bacterial clusters… Show more
