Bovine serum and nasal secretion immunoglobulins against Pasteurella haemolytica serotype 1 antigens
1989
Nelson, S.L. | Frank, G.H.
Experimental intranasal inoculation of cattle with Pasteurella haemolytica serotype 1 resulted in a group that shed the bacteria in their nasal secretions (colonized) and a group that did not shed (uncolonized). After inoculation, antibody titers in serum and nasal secretions against the total P haemolytica increased significantly, and the proportion of total antibody against specific P haemolytica antigens changed so that the proportion directed against the 94- and 62-kD antigens increased. Prior to inoculation, the proportion of total antibody in the serum against 94- and 62-kD antigens of P haemolytica was higher in calves that remained uncolonized than in those that became colonized with P haemolytica after exposure. Antibody specificity of serum and nasal secretions differed in the relative amounts directed against each P haemolytica antigen. The specificity against P haemolytica antigens differed between IgG and IgA isotypes of serum and nasal secretions, with IgA being directed against fewer antigens than was IgG.
