bactericidal effect and serological response of blood and secretions in bovine vibriosis.udder infection of vaccinated heifers with vibrio fetus var. venerealis led to an early and severe reaction consisting of local swelling, hyperthermia, and increased blood leukocyte counts. this reaction was absent or less pronounced in heifers not previously vaccinated. this was interpreted as an immediate hypersensitivity reaction elicited in the vaccinated heifers. specific antibodies were found in udder exudate from vaccinated heifers. immune serum and udder exudate were moderately bacterici ...197116557987
purification and partial characterization of a vibrio fetus immunogen.an antigen released into broth culture medium (2 mg/100 ml of culture medium) during 20-hr growth of vibrio fetus was removed from the growth medium by salt precipitation [50 g of (nh(4))(2)so(4)/100 ml of broth] and centrifugation. about 30 mg of the postgrowth broth (pgb) antigen protein was removed from other salt precipitable material during one polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic run. the pgb antigen was further purified by using gel filtration on sephadex g-200, and a molecular weight of 13 ...197116558018
rate of clearance of vibrio fetus var. venerealis in the rabbit.the rate of clearance of vibrio fetus var. venerealis was measured by using in vivo and in vitro methods. the rate of clearance from the circulating blood increased in immune rabbits and reached a plateau 4 days after immunization. thereafter in vivo clearance did not increase further despite rising agglutinin titers. vibriocidal activity of freshly drawn blood paralleled the rate of in vivo clearance although it was less effective at 4 days. vibriocidal activity of immune serum was not demonstr ...197116558060
location of vibrio fetus var. venerealis within the endometrium of the cow.vibrio fetus was located by immunofluorescence within the endometrial epithelium of experimentally infected heifers. bacterium-like structures were also located by electron microscopy within endometrial epithelial cells.197116558068

bactericidal activity of blood of rabbits vaccinated with homologous antigens of campylobacter fetus (vibrio fetus).rabbits were vaccinated with the following campylobacter fetus var. venerealis (vibrio fetus) antigens: whole-cell (wc), autoclaved (a), boiled (b), and purified postgrowth broth (pgb). bactericidal activity of freshly drawn heparinized blood against the organism was determined after each vaccination. in all cases bactericidal activity of the blood of vaccinated rabbits was higher than for nonvaccinated rabbits. the in vitro bactericidal activity of the blood was determined in two separate exper ...19744609901
immunoglobulin classes and biological functions of campylobacter (vibrio) fetus antibodies in serum and cervicovaginal mucus.serum and cervicovaginal mucus (cvm) antibodies from heifers after genital infection or systemic immunization with campylobacter (vibrio) fetus were classified according to their immunoglobulin class, antigenic specificities, and biological functions. only immunoglobulin (ig) a antibodies, specific both for o and superficial, heat-labile, whole-cell (w) antigens, were detected in cvm of convalescent animals. after systemic immunization, antibodies in serum were directed principally to w antigens ...19744609902
human infection with vibrio fetus.vibrio fetus, a slowly growing, microaerophilic, gram-negative rod which causes infectious abortion in cattle, occasionally induces disease in man. since persons receiving immunosuppressive agents are among those most susceptible to this infection, recognition of the disease may become increasingly important as transplantation operations increase. vibrio infections may produce a spectrum of acute and chronic illnesses or may be asymptomatic. vibriosis may develop at any age but it seems most dev ...19744816399

vibriosis: demonstration of vibrio fetus and vibrio bubulus organisms in preputial fluid by immunofluorescence and cultural techniques.fluorescent conjugates were prepared from the sera of calves immunized with four vibrio fetus strains and one vibrio bubulus strain. the fluorescent antibody technique (fat) was then used to detect vibrio organisms in preputial fluid collected from 67 bulls belonging to a canadian artificial insemination (ai) unit. the v. fetus conjugates reacted with both v. fetus var venerealis and v. fetus var intestinalis. v. fetus was found in 20 animals (29.9%), 13 of which also harboured v. bubulus. in tw ...19744277756
bovine venereal vibriosis: variations in immunoglobulin class of antibodies in genital secretions and serum.the immunoglobulin classes of antibodies to campylobacter (vibrio) fetus in cervicovaginal mucus (cvm) were determined by the indirect fluorescent antibody test at sequential periods, since the order of class appearance has not been established for specific secretory immune responses. in the local immune response to c. fetus immunoglobulin m (igm) antibodies appeared first, immunoglobulin a (iga) antibodies next, and immunoglobulin g (igg) last. igm antibodies were quite transient, but igg antib ...197416558094
[type differentiation of v. fetus and v. bubulus by using fluorescent antisera].obtained were type-specific fluorescent vibrionic antisera for the laboratory identification of vibrio fetus strains. they produced positive fluorescence only with the homologous strains, and did not react with the heterologous strains. this showed that the sera were strongly specific. their use is suggested for the differentiation typing of the vibrio strains.1975766378
superficial antigens of campylobacter (vibrio) fetus: characterization of antiphagocytic component.a glycoprotein responsible for the antiphagocytic properties of campylobacter fetus has been identified by comparing cells of a wild-type strain with those of a mutant lacking this substance. the antiphagocytic component is demonstrable through electron microscopy as a discrete, negatively charged structure on the periphery of the cell. clt is readily removed from the cell by mild extraction procedures and contributes to the inagglutinability in o antiserum normally displayed by c. fetus. cells ...197546843
flagellar ultrastructure and flagella-associated antigens of campylobacter fetus.ultrastructural examinations of the flagellum of compylobacter (vibrio) fetus were performed throughout the growth cycle. filament diameters, exceeding 17.6 nm during the exponential phase, were substantially greater than those reported for unsheathed flagella of other genera with the exception of pseudomonas fluorescens. filament diameters increased during growth, reaching a mean width of 21.2 nm in middle to late stationary phase. internal flagellar structure, principally of the parallel lined ...1975804471
in-vitro effect of edta-tris-lysozyme solutions on selected pathogenic bacteria.the in-vitro effect of edta-tris-lysozyme solution on 16 pathogenic bacteria of medical or veterinary importance was determined. marked decreases in bacterial count occurred with pseudomonas aeruginosa, escherichia coli, moraxella osloensis and campylobacter fetus, and smaller decreses with salmonella typhimurium, shigella boydii, aeromonas hydrophila, proteus mirabilis, listeria monocytogenes and erysipelothrix insidiosa. the test solution had no effect on klebsiella ozaenae, brucella canis, co ...1975805241
infections associated with ovine perinatal mortality in victoria.the occurrence of infections associated with perinatal mortality was investigated. in 1970, carcasses from 94 flocks distributed throughout victoria were examined by microbiological and histopathological techniques. carcasses from 4 of the same flocks were similarly examined in 1971. widespread occurrence of listeria monocytogenes and campylobacter fetus was demonstrated with l. monocytogenes being recognised in 25% of the flocks examined. no other bacterial pathogens commonly associated with ov ...1975809028
[the bacteriological diagnosis of vibrio fetus infection in man (author's transl)].a synopsis of the present classification of vibrio fetus is given (tab. 1, 2). besides the presentation of the importance of these bacteria in veterinary medicine, 97 human infections have been published up to now. the geographic, age and sex distribution of these cases and the material out of which the pathogens were isolated is presented (tab. 3, 4). the clinical picture is summarized. for the culture of vibrio fetus liver broth as described by tarozzi incubated for at least 3-4 days was suita ...19751041142
bilateral deep brachial vein thrombophlebitis due to vibrio fetus.a patient had bilateral deep brachial vein thrombophlebitis in which vibrio fetus was recovered from six blood cultures of the six drawn. fever and phlebitis continued with treatment with intravenous doses of heparin and oxacillin but rapidly improved with treatment change of oxacillin to clindamycin. in vitro antibiotic disk susceptibility testing confirmed resistance to oxacillin and susceptibility to clindamycin. vibrio fetus infection is associated with the vascular endothelium in this and p ...19751041482
bovine veneral vibriosis: cure of genital infection in females by systemic immunization.cure of female cattle with venereal vibriosis by systemic immunization with killed campylobacter fetus cells in incomplete freund adjuvant was investigated. heifers infected in the cervicovaginal area with a cloned population of c. fetus venerealis were vaccinated subcutaneously 14 and 24 days thereafter with the infecting strain in incomplete freund adjuvant. six of eight vaccinated heifers were free of infection 25 to 48 days postinfection. one of the cured animals had an intercurrent infectio ...19751112614
vaccination against vibrio (campylobacter) fetus infection in sheep in late pregnancy.a single injection of vaccine containing disrupted formol-killed vibrio (campylobacter) fetus var intestinalis serotype v was shown to give good protection against abortion from an oral challenge of the same serotype administered simultaneously. protection was also afforded by vaccination at the time of the first abortion in sheep infected orally one month previously. these results suggest that vaccination subsequent to an abortion might be of value in preventing a proportion of further abortion ...19751119063

effects of mycoplasma spp, trichomonas fetus, and campylobacter fetus on ciliary activity of bovine uterine tube organ cultures.microscopic observations were made of sections of normal bovine uterine tube (oviduct) and fimbriae maintained in vitro and exposed to agents known to localize in the bovine genital tract, i.e., mycoplasma, trichomonas fetus, and campylobacter fetus (vibrio fetus). only c fetus stopped ciliary activity. scanning electron microscopy (sem) revealed loss of most cilia. sterile filtrate of c fetus culture had no effect.19751155827
perinatal lamb mortality in western australia: 5. vibrionic infection.vibrionic abortion was diagnosed in sheep on 48 occasions between 1963-65 and 3 of these were associated with other major abortion pathogens. the outbreaks were scattered throughout the agricultural area of western australia. time-of-death of 91 infected lambs was: ante-parturient death 50.5%, parturient death 13.2% and post-parturient death 36.3% (deaths occurring immediately after death 28.6%, deaths delayed after death 2.2%, and late post-parturient death 5.5%). the majority of lambs had gros ...19751164266
the influence of age on the susceptibility of bulls to campylobacter fetus subsp venerealis.observations were carried out on 22 hereford bulls to determine the age at which they bacame carriers of c. fetus. during preliminary investigations, 5 bulbs were repeatedly exposed to the organism by artificial or natural means from the age of 18 months. all animals became longterm carriers on reaching an age of between 40 and 70 months. prior to this, a temporary carrier state lasting from 4 to 29 days was produced in 4 bulls. in a subsequent experiment, 17 bulls of 3 different age groups were ...19751167135
bovine venereal vibriosis: activity of inflammatory cells in protective immunity.the capability of bovine polymorphonuclear (pmn) and mononuclear phagocytes to kill campylobacter (vibrio) fetus venerealis was tested under various conditions in order to judge their roles in protective immunity. bovine pmn killed c fetus in the presence of immunoglobulin g (igg) but not immunoglobulin a (iga) antibodies. some phagocytosis occurred in the absence of antibody in glass-adherent cultures, but not in suspension cultures--indicating that surface phagocytosis by the neutrophils norma ...19751173209
immunisation of cattle against vibriosis with vaccines prepared from campylobacter fetus subsp fetus.subcutaneous administration of vaccines prepared from cells of campylobacter fetus subsp fetus strain a28 to heifers gave substantial protection against infertility due to c. fetus subsp venerealis strain b6. strains a28 and b6 had different heat-stable antigens and conformed respectively to serotype b and serotype a of berg et al (1971). the results suggested that the protective antigens were heat-labile antigens common to both strains. although vaccines prepared from serotype b strains of c. f ...19751180771

studies on veneral transmission of campylobacter fetus by immunised bulls.temporary contamination of the penis and prepuce with campylobacter fetus subsp. venerealis and campylobacter fetus subsp. venerealis biotype intermedius may occur when immunised bulls mate with infected heifers. however, 2 experiments showed that this contamination was not a significant cause of genital infection in susceptible heifers that subsequently mated with bulls.19751243730
gram-negative bacillary endocarditis. interpretation of the serum bactericial test.although the serum bactericidal test is commonly used in the management of infective endocarditis, little has been written about its validity or limitations. we report three cases of gram-negative bacillary endocarditis (pseudomonas aeruginosa, vibrio fetus and serratia marcescens) encountered in 1 year at a veterans administration hospital. serum bactericidal titers were considered necessary to identify inadequate antibiotic regimens or to avoid unnecessary drug toxicity. the limitations of the ...1975234679
[biochemical and serological investigations of flagellae of campylobacter fetus (author's transl)].flagellae of campylobacter fetus group o, types 1, 2 and 7 were prepared. first they were separated from cell bodies using an ultramix. the suspension was then centrifuged for 20 mins. at 10000 rpm and the supernatant frozen at -40 degrees c. this is a simple method for the enrichment of preparations of flagellae, as they become tangled up and accumulate in the inferior third part of the frozen liquid. the physicochemical basis of this phenomenon was discussed. after thawing and spinning for 20 ...1976936824
