Abstract
The present studies were carried out with an attempt to isolate A.
paragallinarum from the cases of Infectious Coryza. Suspected poultry farms
around the Palampur were involved in this study. The isolates were
characterized biochemically and compared with the already confirmed strains
of the organism procured from elsewhere. Out of 146 samples, 6 were confirmed
presence of the organism biochemically and the suitable drugs were identified
to control the disease at farm level. Ciprofloxacin and enrofloxacin were the
most effective drugs against the pathogen A. paragallinarum, whereas,
amoxycillin was found to be moderately effective. Further, all isolates were
confirmed by HP-2 PCR primers.
