Characterization of fur regulatory region of local Pasteurella multocida 6:B isolate / Nurul Azyla Azmi

Haemorrhagic Septicaemia (HS) is a major disease of cattle and buffaloes characterized by an acute, highly fatal septicaemia with high morbidity and mortality. In Asia, HS is caused by Pasteurella multocida serotype B:2 or 6:B. The production of iron regulated outer membrane proteins (IROMPs) is reg...

In Asia, HS is caused by Pasteurella multocida serotype B:2 or 6:B.
