Abstract
A total number of 90 rabbits showing sneezing and nasal discharge
were bacteriologically examined as field cases. Pasteurella multocida
was isolated in a mixed culture from 40 rabbits out of them. Twelve
rabbits out of the later cases were only taken for further haematological,
biochemical and histopathological examinations.
Clinical examination of these naturally infected rabbits revealed
sneezing, nasal discharge, rough fur, labored breathing and in some cases
nervous symptoms. Haematological examination of natural infected
rabbits along 2 1 days after appearance of symptoms revealed normocytic
normochromic anemia followed by microcytic hypochromic anemia
accompanied with thrombocytosis then thrombocytopenia. Biochemical
analysis in liver function of natural infected rabbits showedincrease in
AL T, AST, globulin, total bilirubin and direct bilirubin, and decrease in
albumin, glucose and A/G ratio. The renal functions tests showed
increase in BUN, creatinine, uric acid and inorganic phosphorus and
decrease in calcium level.
