Practitioner's Role in the Diagnosis of Haemophilus somnus

Abstract

As far as diagnosis of Haemophilus as well as many other microbial organisms, we utilize the culture technique quite a little bit
and it is a very good means. It is an opportunist so you can recover it from even healthy animals. But in cases of pathology, like on a lung or something, if you get a pureheavy culture, it certainly points in the right direction for diagnosis. But as in many other diseases, we try to establish some serological method of diagnosis. We worked on this trying to interpret the meaning of titers.
