Molecular serotyping and antimicrobial susceptibility profiles of Pasteurella multocida isolated from cases of hemorrhagic septicemia in cattle from selected districts of Keffa and Bench Sheko zones, South West Ethiopia
Molecular analysis of the study isolates confirmed serotypes B and E as the etiology for Hemorrhagic septicemia in cattle in the study area. A multivalent vaccine comprising serotypes B and E is recommended to prevent outbreaks along with early treatment of suspected cases during the pyretic stage using antibiotics that are effective against the strains.
