Abstract - A trial was made to isolate Pateurella multocidia from some chicken farms suffering from respiratory manifestation. In this study a total of 50 random samples were collected from various organs. Incidence of P. multocidia was 48% between the samples. -Random serological classification showed 4 isolates (A:5, A:8, A:9, D2). - Sensitivity of the isolated P. multocidia indicated that chloramphenical, danofloxacin and ofloxacin were the most effective antibiotics, the test also reported that pencillin G was the more resistant antibiotic to the isolates. -Plasmid DNA profile of the isolated P. multocidia by using agarose gel electrophoresis showed different size of plasmid DNA with no obvious relation between plasmid detection and antibiotic sensitivity. - Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using 4 random primer was demonstrated to characterize, identify and determine the differences in the DNA sequence at the genome. - RAPD-PCR was used as a key to identify untypable isolates by using the results of typable isolates, which was used as a guide- Only 4 isolates between 16 isolates were gave common band between these isolates and typable one by using primer (3). - Serological identification of untypable isolates, which not give any result with RAPD-PCR to identify these isolates.12 isolates A:1, 4 isolates A:4 were detected by serological classification (indirect hemagglutination and agar gel precipitation). Conclusion: - No obvious relation between presence of plasmid and antibiotic resistance. RAPD PCR: -Simple, gave high number of fragments, low cost. It required purified, high molecular weight DNA, in addition to problem with reproducibility. -Complete data base for RAPD analysis of individual serotype, it will be easier to detect serotype without the need to lab. |
