| mobilicoccus pelagius gen. nov., sp. nov. and piscicoccus intestinalis gen. nov., sp. nov., two new members of the family dermatophilaceae, and reclassification of dermatophilus chelonae (masters et al. 1995) as austwickia chelonae gen. nov., comb. nov. | two gram-positive bacteria, designated strains aji5-31(t) and ngc37-23(t), were isolated from the intestinal tracts of fishes. 16s rrna gene sequence analysis indicated that both strains were related to the members of the family dermatophilaceae, with 95.6-96.9% 16s rrna gene sequence similarities. the family dermatophilaceae contains 2 genera and 3 species: dermatophilus congolensis, dermatophilus chelonae and kineosphaera limosa. however, it has been suggested that the taxonomic position of d. ... | 2010 | 21282898 |
| atypical dermatophilus congolensis infection in a three-year-old pony. | dermatophilosis caused by dermatophilus congolensis causes exudative dermatitis in a variety of species. the infection is generally limited to the cutaneous tissues, where infection is acquired from the environment and bacteria penetrate into keratinized epithelium through epithelial disruption. a 3-year-old pony filly was examined for enlarging mandibular lymph nodes during the preceding 10 months. biopsy of the node revealed mixed and granulomatous inflammation and thick, filamentous gram-posi ... | 2010 | 20093705 |

| in vitro antimicrobial properties of caprylic acid, monocaprylin, and sodium caprylate against dermatophilus congolensis. | to determine antimicrobial effects of caprylic acid and its derivatives, monocaprylin and sodium caprylate, on dermatophilus congolensis and to determine effects of caprylic acid on the ultrastructure of d congolensis by use of transmission electron microscopy (tem). | 2011 | 21355735 |
| demodectic mange, dermatophilosis, and other parasitic and bacterial dermatologic diseases in free-ranging white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) in the united states from 1975 to 2012. | the white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) is a common and widespread north american game species. to evaluate the incidence, clinical manifestations, demography, and pathology of bacterial and parasitic dermatologic diseases in white-tailed deer in the southeastern united states, we retrospectively evaluated white-tailed deer cases submitted to the southeastern cooperative wildlife disease study from 1975 to 2012. among 2569 deer examined, bacterial or parasitic dermatologic disease was dia ... | 2013 | 23912715 |
| development of a real-time sybr green pcr assay for the rapid detection of dermatophilus congolensis. | methods such as real time (rt)-pcr have not been developed for the rapid detection and diagnosis of dermatophilus (d.) congolensis infection. in the present study, a d. congolensis-specific sybr green rt-pcr assay was evaluated. the detection limit of the rt-pcr assay was 1 pg of dna per pcr reaction. no cross-reaction with nucleic acids extracted from pseudomonas aeruginosa, mycobacterium tuberculosis, staphylococcus aureus, or austwickia chelonae was observed. finally, the rt-pcr assay was use ... | 2013 | 23820221 |
| arsenicicoccus dermatophilus sp. nov., a hypha-forming bacterium isolated from the skin of greater flamingos (phoenicopterus roseus) with pododermatitis. | dermatophilus-like bacteria were observed in histological examinations of samples of diseased foot skin from greater flamingos (phoenicopterus roseus) living in zoological gardens in switzerland. when grown on tsa-sb containing polymyxin b, the bacteria isolated from these skin samples formed hyphae, as is typical for dermatophilus congolensis, but these bacteria were non-haemolytic. the closest relatives based on 16s rrna gene sequences were the two members of the genus arsenicicoccus, arsenici ... | 2013 | 23728373 |
| isolation and characterization of flagellar filament from zoospores of dermatophilus congolensis. | highly motile zoospores from dermatophilus congolensis bovine isolates from clinical dermatophilosis in japan were obtained by culturing at 27°c in an ambient atmosphere on heart infusion agar supplemented with 5% defibrinated sheep blood for 72h or in heart infusion broth for 48h with gentle shaking. after vigorous mechanical agitation of the zoospore suspension, the flagellar filaments detached from motile zoospores and were isolated in the clear gelatinous part of the final pellet by differen ... | 2014 | 25132009 |
| severe generalized skin lesions due to mixed infection with sporothrix schenkii and dermatophilus congolensis in a bull from jos, nigeria. | sporothrix schenkii and dermatophilus congolensis were isolated from a bull with severe generalized skin lesions. the lesions were thick, crusty and scabby on the dorsal part while few scabby and several nodular lesions were seen on the lower limbs especially the thighs. scab samples and exudates from the nodules were aseptically collected and processed for bacteriology and mycology. gram stained smears revealed gram-positive, filamentous organism that had longitudinal and transverse septa sugge ... | 2014 | 24970367 |
| dermatophilus congolensis in a feral cat. | a young adult feral cat presented to the champaign county humane society with a subcutaneous mass near the stifle. the mass was aspirated. chains of paired cocci organisms were identified, consistent with dermatophilus congolensis. the identity of these organisms was confirmed by culture and polymerase chain reaction. | 2014 | 24496323 |
| identification of dermatophilus congolensis from lower leg dermatitis of cattle in kerala, india. | this study was conducted to identify the aetiological agents associated with a particular type of lower leg dermatitis, locally called pododermatitis, among dairy cattle in kerala. skin scabs and scrapings were collected aseptically from 82 naturally occurring cases of lower leg dermatitis in cattle and were subjected to direct microscopical examination and bacterial and fungal culture. microscopical examination of the skin scrapings with 10% potassium hydroxide revealed fungal spores in hair sh ... | 2015 | 27044156 |

| dermatophilus congolensis infection in platypus ( ornithorhynchus anatinus ), tasmania, australia, 2015. | we report disease due to dermatophilus congolensis infection in three of 13 (23%) platypuses ( ornithorhynchus anatinus ) from a catchment in tasmania, australia. this pathogen has not previously been reported in platypuses. two of the three infected platypuses had extensive scab formations, but no substantial hair loss was apparent. | 2016 | 27505040 |
| rt-qpcr for the diagnosis of dermatophilosis in horses. | dermatophilus congolensis causes a crusting dermatitis that affects horses. diagnosis requires the identification of the organism with cytological evaluation of crust samples. this method can lack sensitivity in chronic cases. | 2016 | 27485381 |
| prevalence of bovine dermatophilosis and disease-associated alleles in zebu goudali cattle and their italian simmental crosses ranching in the western highland plateau savannah of cameroon. | abundance of native pastures makes cameroon's western highland savannah (whs) a hotspot for low-input beef-type cattle. dumbo ranch is central to cattle seed stock multiplication in whs and holds that dermatophilus congolensis infection undermines production. the bovine bola-drb3 has been variously demonstrated as the principal gene of the major histocompatibility locus associated with immunity and resistance to dermatophilosis in cattle. we studied the profile of dermatophilosis prevalence in z ... | 2016 | 27299884 |
| reducing exposure to pathogens in the horse: a preliminary study into the survival of bacteria on a range of equine bedding types. | to compare the rate of growth of four microbial strains that cause disease in the horse, on four commonly used types of bedding. the moisture-holding capacity of each bedding type was also tested. | 2017 | 27659898 |
| in vitro efficacy of extracts from plants used by small-holder farmers in the treatment of dermatophilosis in cattle. | bovine dermatophilosis, an important skin disease of cattle caused by dermatophilus congolensis, negatively impacts the livelihoods of small-holder farmers in zimbabwe. this impact is through, morbidity, loss of draught animal power, costs incurred to manage the disease, losses associated with devalued damaged hides and the resultant culling of some of the affected cattle. due to the inaccessibility of conventional drugs to manage bovine dermatophilosis, farmers have been reported to use local m ... | 2017 | 28573243 |
