Bordetella parapertussis, previously thought to be an obligate human respiratory tract pathogen, has been isolated from sheep. Attempts to assess the prevalence of B. parapertussis in conventionally reared sheep by nasal swabbing proved futile with existing selective media because of extensive overgrowth with Mucor spp. and other nasal commensals. Moredun Bordetella Medium (MBM), which contains cycloheximide and spectinomycin at final concentrations of 0.5 mg/ml and 100 mu g/ml, respectively, was developed as an improved selective medium to isolate B. parapertussis from the nasal cavities of conventionally reared sheep. The selective ability of MBM was evaluated with 200 nasal swabs from conventionally reared sheep, and B. parapertussis was recovered from 31.5% of the samples. MBM facilitated the simple and effective isolation of B. parapertussis from ovine nasal swabs and, in successfully excluding overgrowth with other contaminants, proved superior to other test formulations evaluated and to existing conventional media.
