Antimicrobial resistance and virulence gene profiles in P. multocida strains isolated from cats

Antimicrobial resistance and virulence gene profiles in P. multocida strains isolated from cats

Cats are often described as carriers of Pasteurella multocida in their oral microbiota. This agent is thought to cause pneumonia, conjunctivitis, rhinitis, gingivostomatitis, abscess and osteonecrosis in cats.
