Abstract

Two hundred pooled samples including (liver, heart, and spleen) were collected from examined 454 dead birds that were suspected to be infected with fowl cholera. These birds were collected from 132 poultry farms from different governorates. Eight isolates could be biochemically identified as Pasteurella spp. using PCR. All isolates were identified as Pasteurella multocida (P.multocida) capsular type A with an overall incidence 1.76%. The incidence of avian pasteurellosis in Sharkya (4%) was higher than that in Qalioubia (1.38%). The incidence of isolation of P. multocida from examined chickens was 2.2 (8 out of 360 chickens) while it could not be isolated from duck and turkey samples. Pasteurella multocida could be isolated only from layers chickens.
