In domestic rabbits, pasteurellosis is a primary respiratory disease entity caused by Pasteurella multocida. Respiratory pasteurellsos in rabbits is highly contagious due to dissemination of the organism in the nasal discharge (Benirschke, et al., 1978). The disease reflects a varied and complex host-parasite relationship. Acute infection with high mortality occurs sporadically especially in stressed rabbits less than 10 weeks old, in the form either an enzootic pneumonia, infection of the upper respiratory tract or septicemia. In addition to respiratory form, infection with P. multocida results in a variety of disease processes in rabbits including rhinitis, otitis media, otitis interna, abscesses, metritis, orchitis and meningoencephalaitis (Manning et al., 1989). The deleterious effects of pasteurellosis are common and pose serious problems for rabbit breeders and researchers (Flatt, 1974). (omitted)

Pathological studies on the Enzootic Pasteurellosis of domestic rabbits were performed and discussed. The chief pathological findings were as follows: Grossly, pneumonic lesions were located mainly in apical and cardiac lobes. The lesions were well demarcated with unaffected surrounding tissue. The pleural surface of pneumonic lesions were usually appeared as yellowish~white fibrinous exudate and, in some cases, abscesses were also shown. Microscopically, various cellular exudates composed mainly of neutrophils, large monocytes and lymphocytes were observed in the alveolar spaces. Some alveolar spaces were filled mostly with fibrinous exudates. Occasionally, thrombosis accompanied with infarcts were encountered in pneumonic lesions. There were deposition of purulo-fibrinous exudates on the visceral pleura.

2001년 2월 12일경, 경남 서생 소재 한 넙치 양식장에서 임상적으로 궤양, 체색흑화 및 복수증을 동반하는 질병이 발생하였다. 보름 동안 한 탱크에서만 총 4백미 중 약 5%가 발병하였으며 하루에 10미 미만으로 폐사가 있었다. Ampicillin 투여 후 폐사량이 줄어들었다. 폐사가 일어나고 있던 기간의 수온은 10~13$^{\circ}C$, 염분농도는 31~33$ extperthousand$이었다. 임상적으로 이상 소견을 나타내는 넙치를 채집하여 간, 비장 및 체신에 대해 Nacl(1.5%) 첨가 TSA에 1mm 이하의 연한 아이보리색의 세균 집락이 느린 속도로 자랐다.

The purposes of this investigations were survey of the occurred bacterial diseases, development of new animal health drug, guidance to formers on the treatment and control methods of diseases. Some series of investigations have been carried out by microbiological, pathological and serological examinations. The results could be summarized as follows. 1. A total of 953 cases of outbreaked swine diseases have been diagnosed in Clinical pathology laboratories, Bayer Vet Res Institute during 8 years (from 1986 to 1993). The high incidence diseases were colibacillosis, pleuropneumonia, streptococcal infection and pasteurellosis in decreasing order. 2. Pleuropneumonia caused by Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae was the most important respiratory diseases and pasteurellosis by Pasteurella multocide could be confirmed in several cases. 3. Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae 50 strains were isolated and identified by biochemical and serological tests. In serotyping test, 22 isolated strains were serotype 5, 21 strains as serotype 2, each 2 strains as serotype 3 and 7 by the coagglutination test. 4. Colibacillosis and edema discase caused by Escherichia coli has been the most predominant outbreaked disease in this investigations. The 100 isolates of E coli strains were sensitive to amikacin, colistin, enrofloxacin, gentamycin and trimethoprim -sulfamethoxazole. 5. Swine erysipelas caused by Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae was confirmed 25 cases as acute septicemic forms. Isolates of E rhusiopathiae were highly sensitive to ampicillin, cephalothin, enrofloxcin, penicillin and tetracycline. 6. The 49 cases of hemorrhagic and necrotic enteritis in piglets were observed and 13 strains of Clostridium perfringens could be isolated and confirmed by biological and serological test. Isolates of Clostridium perfringens type C were highly sensitive to ampicillin, cephalothin, enrofloxacin, penicillin and trimethoprim- sulfamethoxazole. 7. The 14 strains of Streptococcus suis type II could be isolated from meningitis of piplets. 8. Polyserositis caused by Haemophilus parasuis and salmonellosis were observed and confirmed. Also Corynebacterial infections and several parasitosis have been also observed in this investigations.

The capsular serogroupes and drug susceptibility of 111 isolates of Pasteurella multocida from pigs with atrophic rhinitis and pneumonic lesions were investigated. Of the 111 P multocida isolates, 42 were from lung lesions, 47 from nasal turbinate lesions and the remaining 22 from the nasal swabs. P multocida isolates were typed for capsular serogroupes A by hyaluronidase inhibition of capsule and D by acriflavine auto-agglutination. Most isolates(64.9%) were type A, 23.4% were type D and the remaining 11.7% were untypable. Resistance to triple sulfa(97.3%) was most frequent, followed by resistance to tiamulin(71.2%), tylosin(56.8%), streptomycin(36.9%), and neomycin(36.0%). The majority of the organisms were susceptible in order of prevalence to baytril(100%), ampicillin(98.2%), linsmycin(97.3%), colistin(97.3%), cephalothin(94.6%), gentamicin(93.7%), amikacin(92.3%), tetracycline(91.9%), trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole(91.0%), and kanamycin(90.1%). No differences in drug resistance in relation to capsular serogroupes of P multocida and the origin of lesions were noted. A high prevalence of multiple drug resistance was observed and the most common resistant patterns were Sss, Tm, Ty(12.6%) and Sm, Sss, Tm, Ty(8.1%) patterns.

The present study was conducted to investigate the incidence of Pasteurella multocida infection in Youngnam swine herds during the period from March 1988 to February 1989 and some properties of the isolated organisms. P multocida was isolated from 22(43.1%) of 51 growing pigs of 4 to 12 weeks of age and from 8(80.0%) of 10 herds. From nasal turbinates of 102 slaughtered pigs, 47(46.1%) pigs were culture positive and pigs from 8(88.9%) of 9 herds were found to be infected with P multocida. From lungs of 101 slaughtered pigs, 42(41.6%) pigs were culture positive and the pigs from 11(91.7%) of 12 herds were found to be infected with P multocida. The majority of biochemical and cultural properties of the P multocida isolates were identical to those of the standard strains. The isolation frequencies of P multocida in relation to pig snout lesion grades of 0 to 5 were 28.6%, 41.6%, 48.0%, 50.0%, 85.7%, and 100%, respectively.

Eight rabbits exhibited head tilt and subsequently died. At necropsy, three rabbits had crusty deposits in ears and four had reddish lungs. The main histopathological features were severe diffuse suppurative meningoencephalitis (75.0% of rabbits), fibrinopurulent pneumonia (37.5%), and otitis externa (37.5%). Pasteurella multocida (P. multocida) was isolated from brains, ears, and lungs. The capsular serogroups of the isolates were untypable. Based on histopathological features and bacterial analysis results, the rabbits were diagnosed as P. multocida infection. P. multocida infections might result in considerable economic loss in commercial rabbit production facilities in Korea.
