Popis: This study was carried out to evaluate the efficacy of vaccination of layer chickens with inactivated FC bacterin prepared from local Egyptian strains of Pasteurella multocida ( P. multocida ). A total of 200 layer chickens were divided into 5 equal groups, 40 for each. At the age of 6 weeks, chickens in groups (A) and (B) were vaccinated with P. multocida serotypes A:1 and A:3, respectively, booster doses were given after 3 weeks (9 weeks old) and challenge was done with virulent serotypes A:1 and A:3 at 2 weeks later (11 weeks old). Chickens in groups (C) and (D) were not vaccinated, only challenged with P. multocida serotype A:1 and A:3, respectively. Birds in group (E) were kept as non-vaccinated and non-challenged. Blood samples were collected weekly from all groups for humoral immune response. All the birds were kept under observation for signs, mortalities, lesions and re-isolation of challenging organism and for histopathological examination. Results of the mean Enzyme Linked Immuno-Sorbent Assay (ELISA) revealed that the highest level was at 5 weeks post vaccination as the titers reached to 3970 in group (A) and 3905 in group (B). The clinical signs, mortality rate and lesions were mild in the vaccinated birds while severe lesions were in non-vaccinated and challenged birds. The protection rates were 85 % and 80 % in groups (A) and (B); respectively, while 10 % and 20 % in groups (C) and (D); respectively. The re-isolation rates of P. multocida after challenge were 95 % and 90 % in non-vaccinated-challenged birds with P. multocida serotypes A:1 and A:3; respectively, while they were 25 % and 15 % in vaccinated-challenged groups with P. multocida serotypes A:1 and A:3; respectively. Histopathological examination of P. multocida vaccinated-challenged birds revealed mild to no microscopic lesions when compared with non-vaccinated challenged chickens. In conclusion, the prepared FC inactivated bacterin from the local Egyptian predominant P. multocida serovars proved efficacy and protection of layer chickens.  Key words: Pasteurella multocida ; chickens; immunization; protection; Egypt  UAŒINKOVITOST CEPLJENJA KOKOA I NESNIC Z INAKTIVIRANO BAKTERIJO KOLERE PERJADI, PRIPRAVLJENE IZ LOKALNIH EGIPTOVSKIH SEVOV BAKTERIJE Pasteurella multocida  Povzetek: Raziskava je bila izvedena z namenom ocenitve uAinkovitosti cepljenja kokoAii nesnic z inaktivirano bakterijo FC, pripravljeno iz lokalnih egiptovskih sevov bakterije Pasteurella multocida ( P. multocida ). Skupno 200 kokoAii nesnic je bilo razdeljenih v 5 enakih skupin. V vsaki skupini je bilo 40 kokoAii. Pri 6 tednih smo kokoAii v skupinah A in B cepili s serotipoma P. multocida A:1 in A:3, po 3 tednih, ko so bile A¾ivali stare 9 tednov, so dobile poA¾ivitvene doze cepiva. Po dveh tednih (v starosti 11 tednov) so bile kokoAii okuA¾ene z virulentnima serotipoma A:1 in A:3. PiAiAanci v skupinah C in D niso bili cepljeni temveA samo okuA¾eni s serotipoma A:1 in A:3. KokoAii v skupini E niso bile niti cepljene, niti okuA¾ene. Vzorci krvi so bili odvzeti pri vseh skupinah tedensko za preverjanje humoralnega imunskega odziva. Vse kokoAii smo stalno opazovali in beleA¾ili prisotnost bolezenskih znakov, razliAnih ran in umiranje kokoAii. Pri poginulih kokoAiih smo osamili bakterije ter opravili histopatoloAiki pregled. Rezultati encimsko-imunskega testa (ELISA) so pokazali da je bila najviAija stopnja zaAiAite doseA¾ena 5 tednov po cepljenju, saj so titri dosegli 3970 v skupini A in 3905 v skupini B. KliniAni znaki, stopnja umrljivosti in rane so bili pri cepljenih kokoAiih blagi, hude rane pa so bile vidne pri necepljenih in okuA¾enih kokoAiih. Stopnja zaAiAite je bila v skupinah A in B 85- oziroma 80-odstotna, v skupinah C in D pa 10- oziroma 20-odstotna. Stopnje ponovne izolacije P. multocida po okuA¾bi so bile 90 in 95 odstotkov pri kokoAiih, ki niso bile cepljene, medtem, ko so bile v skupinah, ki so bile okuA¾ene s P. multocida serotipa A:1 in A:3 15- in 25-odstotkov. HistopatoloAiki pregled cepljenih in okuA¾enih kokoAii je pokazal popolno odsotnost ali prisotnost blagih mikroskopskih poAikodb, medtem ko so imele necepljene okuA¾ene kokoAii bolj obseA¾ne histopatoloAike poAikodbe. Pripravljena inaktivirana bakterija FC iz lokalnih egiptovskih prevladujoAih serovarov P. multocide se je izkazala za uAinkovito zaAiAito kokoAii nesnic.
