The capsular serogroupes and drug susceptibility of 111 isolates of Pasteurella multocida from pigs with atrophic rhinitis and pneumonic lesions were investigated. Of the 111 P multocida isolates, 42 were from lung lesions, 47 from nasal turbinate lesions and the remaining 22 from the nasal swabs. P multocida isolates were typed for capsular serogroupes A by hyaluronidase inhibition of capsule and D by acriflavine auto-agglutination. Most isolates(64.9%) were type A, 23.4% were type D and the remaining 11.7% were untypable. Resistance to triple sulfa(97.3%) was most frequent, followed by resistance to tiamulin(71.2%), tylosin(56.8%), streptomycin(36.9%), and neomycin(36.0%). The majority of the organisms were susceptible in order of prevalence to baytril(100%), ampicillin(98.2%), linsmycin(97.3%), colistin(97.3%), cephalothin(94.6%), gentamicin(93.7%), amikacin(92.3%), tetracycline(91.9%), trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole(91.0%), and kanamycin(90.1%). No differences in drug resistance in relation to capsular serogroupes of P multocida and the origin of lesions were noted. A high prevalence of multiple drug resistance was observed and the most common resistant patterns were Sss, Tm, Ty(12.6%) and Sm, Sss, Tm, Ty(8.1%) patterns.

The present study was conducted to investigate the incidence of Streptococcus suis infection in the pneumonic lungs of slaughter pigs from December 1992 to April 1994 and to examine the biochemical and cultural properties, the antimicrobial susceptibility and serotype of the isolates. Fifty-six(7.95%) strains of S suis was isolated from 704 pneumonic lungs of slaughter pigs, of which 33 cultures were isolated alone, while remaining 18 were complicated wide Pasteurella multocida. Of the 56 S suis isolates, 18(32.1%) were serotype 2, 5(8.9%) were serotype 1/2, 2 were serotype 1, 1 each for serotype 3 & 5, and the remaining 29 were untypable. The twenty five strains(44.6%) of all isolates produced hyaluronidase while 15 strains(88.3%) of 18 serotype 2 isolates were hyaluronidase producers. All of isolates were highly susceptible to ampicillin, amoxicillin, ceftiofur, cephalothin, ciprofloxacin and penicillin G, although the majority of them were resistant to kanamycin, colistin, erythromycin, oxytetracycline.

In recent years much attention has been paid to swine respiratory infection caused by Haemophilus(H.) Pleuropneumoniae with rapid expansion of pork industry in Korea. The organism may cause an acute respiratory infection with high morbidity and mortality, or it may also cause chronic persistent infection, resulting in loss of body weight. The present study was performed to observe the etiologic situation of H. Pleuropneumoniae infection by evaluating bacteriological, serological examinations with the lungs and sera collected from slaughtered pigs in Daegu city, respectively. In addition, antibiotic susceptibility test was carried out against the isolated strains of H. Pleuropneumoniae. The results obtained are summarized as follows : 1. Only 10 strains of H. Pleuropneumoniae were isolated from the 120 cases of swine lungs examined, and biological and biochemical characteristics of the isolates were identical with that of standard strains(serovar 1 to 6). 2. Out of 336 swine sera examined, 108(32.1%) were shown to be positive against H. Pleuropneumoniae by latex agglutination test. 3. Antibiotic susceptibility test revealed that 10 isolates of H. Pleuropneumoniae were sensitive to 16 kinds of antibiotic such as ampicillin, benzylpenicillin, piperacillin, cephalothin, cefazolin, cefamandol, cefoperagon, lactomoxycefa, tetracycline, minocycline, chloramphenicol, gentamicin, kanamycin, amikacin, colistin and nalidixic acid, whereas cloxacillin, erythromycin, kitasamycin, lincomycin, oleand-amycin, and bacitracin were resistent.
