| genotypic distribution and phylogenetic characterization of enterocytozoon bieneusi in diarrheic chickens and pigs in multiple cities, china: potential zoonotic transmission. | this study investigated diarrheic broiler and layer chickens (<50 days; n=14) and pigs of three age groups (preweaned <30 days, weaned ≈30 to 60 days, and growing >60 days; n=64) for e. bieneusi genotypes in northeast china and evaluated the potential roles of chickens and pigs in zoonotic transmission of microsporidiosis. two 45-day-old layer chickens in city jixi, heilongjiang province and one 23-day-old broiler chicken in city songyuan, jilin province were identified to harbor a human-pathoge ... | 2014 | 25255117 |
| detection of neospora caninum-dna in brain tissues from pigeons in changchun, jilin (china). | neospora caninum is an intracellular protozoan infecting many domestic and wild animals. the domestic chicken (gallus domesticus) and the sparrow (passer domesticus) are known as natural intermediate hosts of n. caninum, whereas the role of other birds such as pigeons is still unclear. in the present study, pigeon brain tissues collected in jilin of china were screened by n. caninum specific-nested pcr to determine whether pigeons functioned as the natural intermediate hosts of n. caninum. the p ... | 2015 | 26385650 |
| identification and molecular characterization of antimicrobial-resistant shiga toxin-producing escherichia coli isolated from retail meat products. | ten (2.7%) shiga toxin-producing escherichia coli (stec) were isolated from 370 samples of raw minced beef, mutton, pork, and chicken from the jilin region of china; and additional 10 e. coli o157:h7 isolates were previously isolated from different jilin regions. seventeen of the isolates were multiresistant, exhibiting resistance to ampicillin, ciprofloxacin, tetracycline, sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim, gentamycin, and streptomycin. class 1 integrons were detected in nine (45.0%) of the stec is ... | 2011 | 21453117 |
| association study between an outbreak of guillain-barre syndrome in jilin, china, and preceding campylobacter jejuni infection. | from june to july 2007, 36 cases of guillain-barre syndrome (gbs) occurred in a township in north china. serological study and bacteria culture were performed to investigate the association between preceding campylobacter jejuni infection and this gbs outbreak. anti-c. jejuni antibodies were found in significantly higher numbers of gbs patients (igm 84%, igg 87.5%) than in healthy inspection cases (igm 33%, igg 27%). igg anti-gm1 was the dominant anti-ganglioside antibody among the gbs patients. ... | 2010 | 20455754 |
| fowl adenovirus species c serotype 4 is attributed to the emergence of hepatitis-hydropericardium syndrome in chickens in china. | since july in 2015, an emerging infectious disease of hepatitis-hydropericardium syndrome (hhs) was prevalent in chicken flocks in china. to confirm the causative agent and investigate the epidemiology of the disease, a total of 38 chicken flocks including 187 samples from jilin, liaoning, heilongjiang, henan, anhui, hubei, jiangxi, xinjiang, shandong and hunan provinces in china were collected and determined by pcr detection, sequencing, phylogenetic analysis and virus isolation. 81 samples (po ... | 2016 | 27615553 |
| novel influenza a(h7n2) virus in chickens, jilin province, china, 2014. | in february 2014, while investigating the source of a human infection with influenza a(h7n9) virus in northern china, we isolated subtypes h7n2 and h9n2 viruses from chickens on the patient's farm. sequence analysis revealed that the h7n2 virus is a novel reassortant of h7n9 and h9n2 viruses. continued surveillance is needed. | 2014 | 25271958 |
| characterization of antimicrobial resistance and extended-spectrum β-lactamase genes in escherichia coli isolated from chickens. | extended-spectrum β-lactamase (esbl)-producing escherichia coli have been frequently isolated from food-producing animals and pose a serious threat to human health. this study collected 195 esbl-producing e. coli isolates from 20 chicken farms and 3 live-bird markets located in northeast china (heilongjiang, liaoning, jilin) and jiangsu province from february 2011 to october 2013. esbl genes, including blactx-m, blatem, and blashv, were detected and characterized, and the susceptibilities of the ... | 2015 | 25785885 |
