Abstract |
Infectious coryza is one of the important acute respiratory diseases causing a significant egg drop and retarded growth in chicken. An attempt for the isolation of etiologic agent was made by utilizing SPF sentinel birds housed in commercial farms and the results obtained are as follows. Fifteen isolates of Haemophilus gallinarum were tested for their biological and serological characteristics with reference strains, 221 and Modesto and subsequently classified into two serotypes. Of them, isolates immunolocally identical to the standard strains were also selected as vaccine strains for future studies. |
