Pasteurella haemolytica biotype A, serotype 1 (P haemolytica A1) was the most commonly isolated Pasteurella species from 80 calves examined at necropsy from 40 outbreaks of respiratory disease, the majority of which were pathologically confirmed as bovine pneumonic pasteurellosis (transit fever; shipping fever). Similarly, nasopharyngeal swabs from in-contact and apparently healthy calves indicated the widespread presence of P haemolytica A1. Pasteurella multocida and other serotypes of P haemolytica A1 were found including six isolations of P haemolytica T10, a fairly common pathogen in sheep. Approximately two-thirds of the isolates were tested for their antimicrobial sensitivity patterns and the degree of sensitivity for P haemolytica A1, the most frequently isolated serotype, was chloramphenicol (100 per cent), sulphamethoxazole trimethoprim (98 per cent), oxytetracycline (80 per cent), ampicillin (85 per cent), penicillin (82 per cent), streptomycin (3 per cent) and lincomycin (1 per cent).

A mutant of Escherichia coli which contained no detectable AMP nucleosidase activity (EC 3.2.2.4) was produced by treatment with nitrosoguanidine and identified by a colorimetric assay for AMP nucleosidase in individual colonies from agar plates. Conjugation experiments indicated a close linkage between the AMP nucleosidase locus (amn) and his. Assays for AMP nucleosidase in E. coli strains with deletions in the his region established that amn is not located between attP2H and mgl . Transduction experiments with bacteriophage P1 were used to construct a linkage map in the his and amn region of the 100-min chromosome map of E. coli, which places amn at 43.3 min. A Rec- strain of E. coli ( FP4102 ) which carries the uvrC to his region (42.1-44.1 min) as an F' episome was used to confirm this location. The episome from FP4102 was used as the source of DNA for cloning amn. BamHI restriction fragments of the episome were inserted into the homologous site of pBR322 and used to transform the Amn- strain of E. coli to Amn+. The transforming plasmid contained a 9-kb (kilobase) insert. Partial restriction of plasmid with ClaI and religation gave a plasmid with a 6-kb insert which retains the amn gene. Restriction mapping of the plasmid has identified ClaI and PstI sites which appear to be within the amn locus. E. coli (Rec-) which contains the 9-kb plasmid of pBR322 containing amn overproduces AMP nucleosidase when grown in the presence of ampicillin. The specific activity of AMP nucleosidase increases from 0.016 mumol/min/mg of protein to 0.32 mumol/min/mg of protein in extracts of the wild type and the plasmid-bearing strains, respectively. A simple purification procedure yields 10 mg of homogeneous AMP nucleosidase from 25 g of packed cells.

A plasmid containing a single cloned insertion of Haemophilus influenzae chromosomal deoxyribonucleic acid that carried a novobiocin resistance marker was 2.6 times larger than the parent plasmid, RSF0885, which conferred ampicillin resistance. The most frequent type of transformation by this plasmid (designated pNov1) was the transfer of novobiocin resistance to the chromosome, with the loss of the plasmid from the recipient. In accord with this observation, after radioactively labeled pNov1 entered a competent cell, it lost acid-insoluble counts, as well as biological activity. The level of ampicillin transformation, which involved establishment of the plasmid, was almost two orders of magnitude lower than the level of novobiocin transformation. Both types of transformation were depressed profoundly in rec-1 and rec-2 mutants. Ampicillin transformants of wild-type cells always contained plasmids that were the same size as pNov1, although most of these transformants were not novobiocin resistant. Plasmid pNov1 in wild-type cells but not in rec-1 or rec-2 cells often recombined with the chromosome, causing a homologous region of the chromosome to be substituted for part of the plasmid, as shown by restriction and genetic analyses. Our data suggested that plasmid-chromosome recombination took place only around the time when the plasmid entered a cell, rather than after it became established.

Plasmid RSF0885, which conferred ampicillin resistance, transformed competent Haemophilus influenzae cells with low efficiency (maximum, less than 0.01%). As judged by competition experiments and uptake of radioactivity, plasmid RSF0885 deoxyribonucleic acid was taken up into competent H. influenzae cells several orders of magnitude less efficiently than H. influenzae chromosomal deoxyribonucleic acid. Plasmid RSF0885 transformed cells with even lower efficiency than could be accounted for by the low uptake. Transformation was not affected by rec-1 and rec-2 mutations in the recipient, and strains cured of the plasmid did not show increased transformation. Plasmid molecules cut once with a restriction enzyme that made blunt ends did not transform. Transformation was favored by the closed circular form of the plasmid.

A total of 94,827 Escherichia coli strains isolated from cattle, sheep, pigs and poultry during the years 1971 to 1977 were tested for resistance to six antibiotics using a disc diffusion technique. The percentage of strains resistant to chloramphenicol (10 microgram), streptomycin (10 microgram), tetracycline (10 microgram), neomycin (10 Microgram) and furazolidone (15) were 16.8, 53.9, 42.7, 18 and 10.9 per cent, respectively; 52.2 per cent of strains (1971 and 1972) were resistant to 2 microgram ampicillin and 27.8 per cent of strains (1973 and 1977) were resistant to 10 microgram ampicillin. There was no evidence of an overall increase in antibiotic resistance during the seven year period. The animal species of origin was recorded for each of the 55,494 E coli strains examined during 1974 to 1977; 31,763 strains were isolated from cattle, 15,688 from pigs, 4582 from sheep and 3191 from poultry. Considerable variations in antibiotic resistance were recorded for strains isolated from different species.

An outbreak of infections with non-encapsulated Haemophilus influenzae, resistant to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, sulphonamide and tetracycline involved 13 elderly patients and three nurses on acute admission and care of the elderly wards. Thirty-two isolates were found to be indistinguishable on analysis of biotype, antibiogram, serotype and major outer membrane proteins (MOMP). Plasmids could not be identified in the original isolates but after mating with a Rec A H. influenzae recipient, the resultant transconjugates were found to harbour either a 72 kilobase pair (kB) plasmid coding for resistance to chloramphenicol, ampicillin, sulphonamide and tetracycline or a 65 kB plasmid coding for resistance to chloramphenicol, ampicillin and sulphonamide. Both plasmids yielded virtually indistinguishable restriction digest patterns. This suggests that the tetracycline resistance gene (Tc gene) is a non-essential component of one basic plasmid responsible for the multiple antibiotic resistances seen in the strains recovered during the outbreak. This illustrates the value of plasmid profiles to compare strains of non-encapsulated H. influenzae, and suggests that plasmid restriction enzyme analysis is critical.

The in vitro susceptibilities of Pasteurella haemolytica biotypes A and T and P multocida from pneumonic ovine lungs to penicillin, ampicillin, oxytetracycline, chloramphenicol, erythromycin, kanamycin, neomycin, gentamicin, streptomycin and lincomycin were determined by the disk diffusion method. All the isolates were sensitive to chloramphenicol and resistant to lincomycin. The isolates of P haemolytica biotype A were consistently more sensitive to penicillin, ampicillin, oxytetracycline, erythromycin and streptomycin than those of biotype T.

In December 1991, an outbreak of Streptococcus bovis septicaemia occurred in a Belgian pigeon loft where 25 male and 25 female racing pigeons were housed. The main clinical signs included inability to fly and poor breeding results. None of the female pigeons and only one male pigeon was able to fly. Nine affected pigeons were necropsied. Histologically a tenosynovitis of the tendon of the deep pectoral muscle was observed in most of them and S bovis was isolated from the canalis triosseus or the shoulder joints of five of the nine pigeons. The pigeons were successfully treated with ampicillin administered in the drinking water for seven days.

An outbreak of Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis infection in an Israeli dairy herd appeared in four clinical forms: cutaneous, mastitic, visceral and a mixed form. Only cows were affected and susceptibility increased with age. Most cases occurred during a short period in the summer months. The total morbidity rate was 13.7 per cent involving 41 cows. Thirty cows were affected by the cutaneous form, five by the mastitic form, four by the mastitic and cutaneous forms, one by the mastitic and visceral forms and one by the visceral form. The cutaneous form appeared as one or two pyogranulomatous lesions affecting the body or head. Subclinical to severe clinical mastitis was found in the mastitic form. In the visceral form the upper and lower respiratory system were affected by multiple purulent lymphadenitis. All the cutaneous lesions recovered irrespective of treatment. Mastitis did not respond to treatment and severely affected milk production in most cases. All the isolates of C pseudotuberculosis were nitrate reductase negative. Most isolates were sensitive to norfloxacin, cephalothin, methicillin, kanamycin and furazolidone and resistant to ampicillin, lincomycin and neomycin.

Between April 1984 and November 1986, 126 faeces samples were collected from puppies and bitches in a kennel and examined for Yersinia species; 45 (35.7 per cent) of them were positive. Thirty-eight isolates were Y enterocolitica, five were Y frederiksenii and two were Y intermedia. Twenty-one of the Y enterocolitica isolates belonged to serogroup 0:3 and 17 of these were L-sorbose negative; all these isolates were from puppies. One strain of Y frederiksenii and all the L-sorbose-negative Y enterocolitica serogroup 0:3 isolates were resistant to antimicrobial agents and showed four different patterns of resistance (ampicillin, cephalothin and tetracycline; ampicillin, cephalothin, streptomycin and tetracycline; ampicillin, chloramphenicol, cephalothin, streptomycin and sulfathiazole; and ampicillin, chloramphenicol, cephalothin, streptomycin, sulfathiazole and tetracycline. In January 1986, investigations were conducted on a cattle farm and a pig farm close to the kennel. Of 19 bovine faeces samples 11 (57.8 per cent) were positive for Yersinia species; eight yielded Y enterocolitica and four yielded Y frederiksenii. None of the Y enterocolitica isolates belonged to serogroup 0:3. Of 20 porcine faeces samples eight (40 per cent) were positive for Yersinia species; all eight yielded Y enterocolitica and four also yielded Y pseudotuberculosis. Two of the isolates of Y frederiksenii and two of the isolates of Y enterocolitica from the farms had the following resistance patterns: ampicillin, cephalothin and streptomycin; ampicillin, streptomycin and tetracycline; ampicillin, chloramphenicol, cephalothin, streptomycin, trimethoprim-sulphamethoxazole and tetracycline; and ampicillin, chloramphenicol, cephalothin, streptomycin, sulphatiazole, trimethoprim-sulphamethoxazole and tetracycline.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
