ABSTRACT
Pasteurellosis in laboratory animals is a common bacterial infection caused by serotypes of Pasteurella multocida. The most susceptible laboratory animals to Pasteurella multocida are rabbits and mice, and clinical signs usually include upper respiratory tract infection, rhinitis, sinusitis, and conjunctivitis. In experimental studies, results may be adversely affected by the presence of Pasteurellosis. This chapter attempts to address the pathogenesis, clinical findings, diagnosis, and treatment of pasterullosis in laboratory animals.

Keywords: Pasteurellosis; respiratory infection; laboratory animals
