Abstract

A modified indirect hemagglutination test which enabled Pasteurella haemolytica to be serotyped in 3 h is described. There was 100% correlation with the conventional test for both the 15 prototype strains and the 50 field isolates. It was found that nonviable cultures could also be serotyped.
