In this study, thigh muscle samples from six cows and two buffaloesdied in outbreaks of Black Quarter at different districts of Punjab wereprocessed for isolation and characterization of pathogenic clostridia.Clostridium chauvoei was isolated from all the samples and identifiedthrough biochemical and fermentation tests. All the eight isolates ofClostridium chauvoei caused death in guinea pigs within 24-72 hourswith rapid development of symptoms identical to the symptoms of BlackQuarter in cattle. All local isolates of Cl. chauvoei were foundserologically homologous to Clostridium chauvoei Hershey strain used forBlack Quarter vaccine production at Veterinary Research Institute Lahorewhen subjected to agar gel precipitation test.
