Taxonomy of pasteurella anatipestifer. 2. Cellular fatty-acid profile by gas chromatography
Avian Diseases
|January 1, 1987
Abstract:
Methylated cellular fatty acids of representative strains of Pasteurella spp., Moraxella spp., and P. anatipestifer were subjected to gas chromatography in an attempt to further support the independence of P. anatipestifer from both Pasteurella and Moraxella. All Pasteurella spp. and Moraxella spp. revealed group characteristics specific for each genus that could be easily differentiated from the unique profile of P. anatipestifer. All P. anatipestifer strains tested showed similar fatty-acid profiles in gas chromatography, regardless of host of origin.
