Pasteurella Multocida Type B In Malaysia: Characterisation, Immune Response And Protection In Vaccinated Buffaloes

A study on the characteristics of the Malaysian field and vaccine strains of Pasteurella multocida type B was conducted . In addition , the immunogenic potential of haemorrhagic septicaemia ( HS ) vaccines was evaluated in buffaloes . A total of 48 P. multocida isolates including the five HS va...
