Overview Pasteurella

  • Found in the upper respiratory tract and gastrointestinal tract mucosa
  • Usually opportunistic organisms, causing disease during times of stress, low resistance or concurrent infections
  • Resist phagocytosis by their capsule
  • Not part of the human bacterial flora

Bacteria Properties

  • Short Gram-negative bacilli
  • Oxidase-positive
  • May show bipolar staining
  • Catarrhal odour
  • Produce endotoxins which cause host damage and death

Pasteurella multocida

  • ===Typa A===
    • Commensal in upper respiratory tract of animals in UK
    • Commomly repsonsible for dog and cat bite wound infections in humans and animals
    • Some strains involved in Atropic Rhinitis, and produce osteolytic toxin
  • ===Type B===
    • Causes Haemorrhagic Septicaemia of cattle in Southern Europe and Asia
  • ===Type D===
    • Causes Atropic Rhinitis along with Bordetella bronchiseptica
    • Produces an osteolytic toxin, which stimulates osteoclast, inducing bone resorption
  • ===Type E===
    • Causes Afican Bovine Haemorrhagic Septicaemia

Pasteurella pneumotropica

  • Carried in nasopharynx of many small rodents
  • Causes pneumonia in rodents as a secondary disease
