Abstract
- Methods of immunising lambs against pneumonic pasteurellosis, caused by several serotypes of Pasteurella haemolytica, were assessed in specific pathogen free lambs. Lambs were vaccinated intramuscularly with sodium salicylate extract (SSE) of P haemolytica, either alone or in combination with heat-killed organisms (HKO). SSE of P haemolytica type A1 protected vaccinated lambs against pneumonia resulting from challenge with the homologous serotype. SSE of type A2 also provided some protection but this was improved by vaccination with a combination of SSE and HKO.
