| Abstract | Potassium thiocyanate extracts of a virulent Pasteurella multocida 3:A rabbit isolate were prepared and used as a vaccine in rabbits. The extract contained protein, carbohydrate, hyaluronic acid, lipopolysaccharide, DNA, and RNA. The protein and lipopolysaccharide profiles of the extract were similar to those of the P. multocida cell membrane. Rabbits were vaccinated intranasally (i.n.) or intramuscularly (i.m.) four times at 1- or 3-week intervals and challenged i.n. with the homologous P. multocida 2 weeks after the last vaccination. Rabbits vaccinated with the extract by the i.n. route developed persisting serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) and nasal IgA antibodies, whereas rabbits immunized by the i.m. route produced persisting serum IgG and transient nasal IgA antibodies. The extract prevents the death of rabbits which were vaccinated by either route and challenged. Vaccination by the i.n. route in rabbits reduced the numbers of virulent P. multocida in nasal cavities and lungs and the prevalence and severity of rhinitis and pneumonia. These i.n.-vaccinated rabbits were also resistant to virulent P. multocida colonization in liver, spleen, uterus, and tympanic bullae. Similarly, i.m. vaccination in rabbits resulted in a reduction in the severity of rhinitis; the numbers of virulent P. multocida in lungs; and the prevalence of colonization in liver, spleen, uterus, and tympanic bullae. Vaccination by the i.n. route was superior to that by the i.m. route in that there was a significant reduction in the severity of pneumonia and numbers of virulent P. multocida in nasal cavities and lungs. Rabbits vaccinated with the extract without challenge showed no lesions. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
