haemophilus vaginalis (corynebacterium vaginale) vaginitis in women attending public health clinics: response to treatment with ampicillin.haemophilus vaginalis (corynebacterium vaginale) was isolated from genital specimens from 150 women who came to a public health venereal disease clinic. forty-six patients returned to the clinic for at least one follow-up examination. of the returnees, 22 of 24 who initially had received adequate therapy (14 g ampicillin in seven days) were cured, compared with three of 22 who did not received adequate therapy (x2 = 25.11; p less than 0.00005). these data included significant cure rates with ade ...1978306133
corynebacterium pyogenes mastitis outbreak in inbred heifers in a california dairy.an outbreak of corynebacterium pyogenes mastitis ("summer mastitis") was observed in a group of 96 heifers. the outbreak affected 8 animals, of which 7 were too young for breeding. the disease incidence was highest in calves 2 to 4 months old. cases were observed over an initial estimated 14 day period with a further case being detected 14 days subsequently. corynebacterium pyogenes mastitis has not been reported in calves this age. factors postulated to influence the outbreak include the presen ...19873328670

bacteria isolated from lymph nodes of california slaughter swine.lymph nodes from 280 slaughter swine from 9 california ranches were examined for the presence of aerobic microflora. genera of interest which were isolated (and percentage of animals from which they were isolated) included salmonella (4.3%), beta-hemolytic streptococci (8.2%), mycobacterium avium-complex (6.4%), corynebacterium pyogenes (0.4%), and aeromonas hydrophila (5.7%). patterns of bacterial isolations from swine herds may be of assistance in predicting herd health problems.19846383150
epidemiological and bacteriological studies of corynebacterium equi isolates from californian farms.soil samples were collected from 6 horse breeding establishments in california and cultured for corynebacterium equi. only 3 of the farms had a history of the occurrence of pneumonia caused by c. equi. one farm had experienced an outbreak in 5 out of 6 foals just before soil sampling. soil isolates were identified as c. equi on the basis of physical and biochemical characteristics found to be consistent with isolates of equine origin. c. equi was found in many soil samples within endemic areas w ...19826962887
fatal pneumonia of bighorn sheep following association with domestic sheep.during 1979-1980 acute fibrinopurulent bronchopneumonia resulted in high mortality or total loss of herds of bighorn sheep (ovis canadensis) in california and washington. contact with domestic sheep occurred shortly before the onset of disease in each case. circumstantial evidence indicated that the apparently healthy domestic sheep transmitted pathogenic bacteria to the bighorns, resulting in mortality. pasteurella multocida and corynebacterium pyogenes were isolated from pulmonary tissue of de ...19827047767
bacterial and fungal flora of wild northern fur seals (callorhinus ursinus).tissues from healthy subadult and moribund newborn northern fur seals (callorhinus ursinus) on st. paul island, pribilof islands, alaska, and from healthy pups and yearlings on san miguel island, california, were sampled for bacteria and fungi. corynebacterium spp. and staphylococcus spp. were more frequently present in tissues from animals on st. paul island whereas pseudomonas spp. were frequently isolated on san miguel island. approximately half of the blood samples were positive for bacteria ...19827154218
effect of different sampling techniques on odds ratio estimates using hospital-based cases and controls.potential biases introduced by the use of hospital admission records have rarely been discussed in the veterinary literature. veterinary medical teaching hospital (vmth) patient records kept at the university of california, davis (ucd) school of veterinary medicine provide a unique opportunity to perform in-depth analyses on the effect of different control selection (sampling) techniques on odds ratio (or) estimates for disease risk factors in a retrospective case-control study. horses with cory ...19979361322
risk factors associated with corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis infection in california horses.a case-control study was designed using equine medical records from the uc davis veterinary medical teaching hospital (vmth) and data derived through a mailed survey. the objective was to evaluate the associations between horse demographics, horse-management factors, and equine corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis infection in california. horses admitted to the vmth between july 1 1992 and june 30 1994 served as the study base for case identification and simple random sampling of 800 controls. a q ...19989689656
application and evaluation of a mailed questionnaire for an epidemiologic study of corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis infection in horses.the objective of this study is to describe the design, application and validity of a self-administered (mailed) questionnaire to collect data on potential risk factors for corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis infection in california horses. horses admitted to the uc davis veterinary medical teaching hospital (vmth) between 1 july 1992 and 30 june 1994 served as the study base for case identification and simple random sampling of 800 control horses. a questionnaire was mailed to owners of the study ...19989689657
comparative molecular characterization of corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis of different origin.ribotyping and susceptibility to 17 antimicrobial agents were used to compare 37 isolates of corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis (28 from horses, 1 from cattle, 3 from sheep and 5 from goats) derived from various types of lesions, and different geographic locations. according to the presence of nitrate reductase, all but one isolate from horses reduced nitrate (nitrate-positive), whereas all isolates from sheep and goats were unable to reduce nitrate (nitrate-negative). the ribotype of the nitrat ...19989695286
evaluation of temporal and spatial clustering of horses with corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis infection.to determine whether horses with corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis infections that were examined at a veterinary medical teaching hospital between july 1, 1992, and june 30, 1994 had patterns of temporal or spatial clustering.199910188808

use of a real-time polymerase chain reaction-based fluorogenic 5' nuclease assay to evaluate insect vectors of corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis infections in horses.to develop and use a sensitive molecular assay for detecting the phospholipase d (pld) exotoxin gene of corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis in an attempt to identify insect vectors that may be important in transmission of clinical disease in horses.200415198224
molecular epidemiologic features of corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis isolated from horses.to characterize isolates of corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis from horses, cattle, and sheep in colorado, kentucky, utah, and california in samples collected during perceived epidemics of infection (increased numbers of cases identified) in 2002 and 2003, and determine how closely isolates were related and their possible source.200415631043
