Pasteurellosis in aviars (literature review)

Respiratory diseases of birds cause great economic losses to industrial poultry farming. One of the causes of respiratory syndrome is the pathogen Pasteurella multocida. This is dangerous infectious disease characterized by high mortality and affects birds of all species and all ages. Pasteurellosis is widespread all around the world, including of the territory of the Russian Federation. The source of the pathogen is sick and oversick birds. The carriers of the pathogen of pasteurellosis might be rodents, insects, synanthropic birds, as well as animals of other species. The disease most often takes on a stationary character and requires constant epizootic monitoring. Great attention should be paid to the protection of farms from the introduction of the pathogen from the outside. It is necessary to carry out preventive measures in time – disinfection, deratization, disinfection and comply with biosafety requirements when conducting economic activities. For timely diagnosis and prevention, as well as for the successful prevention of the spread and elimination of foci of pasteurellosis, it is necessary to constantly update data on the disease, supplementing them with new information about the pathogen and its spread. For specific disease prevention, it is necessary to use vaccine The purpose of this article is to analyze the papers of native and foreign authors, which describe the work on the study of the morphology of the pathogen, the causes of the disease, the spread, prevention and control measures against the pathogen of infection. Scientific information and data on the study of avian pasteurellosis, methodological recommendations, regulatory documents of the Russian Federation aimed at diagnosis, prevention and establishment of restrictive measures (quarantine) were used as material for the study.
