| relatedness of cytotoxins from geographically diverse isolates of moraxella bovis. | to determine whether amino acid sequence variation exists in the moraxella bovis (m. bovis) cytotoxin (mbxa) from geographically diverse m. bovis isolated in the united states, mbxa was amplified and sequenced. the mbxa deduced amino acid sequence from m. bovis originally isolated in california, washington, north carolina, and georgia, as well as reference strains of m. bovis isolated at the national animal disease laboratory, ames, ia, usa, all encoded a nearly identical 927 amino acid protein. ... | 2007 | 17540518 |
| canine schistosomiasis in north america: an underdiagnosed disease with an expanding distribution. | heterobilharzia americana, a digenean trematode in the family schistosomatidae, is the etiologic agent of canine schistosomiasis in the southeastern united states.1 a few cases of canine schistosomiasis have been reported in florida, louisiana, north carolina, texas, and, recently, kansas.1-6 the natural definitive host for the fluke is the raccoon1; however, infections have been detected in nutrias, bobcats, mountain lions, opossums, white-tailed deer, swamp rabbits, armadillos, coyotes, red wo ... | 2010 | 20473851 |
| a randomized trial of alemtuzumab vs. anti-thymocyte globulin induction in renal and pancreas transplantation. | the role of alemtuzumab as an immunosuppressive agent is evolving. we conducted a prospective randomized trial comparing alemtuzumab and rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin (ratg) induction in adult kidney and pancreas transplantation using similar maintenance immunosuppression. between february 1, 2005 and june 15, 2006 (median follow-up six months), 98 patients were randomized either to alemtuzumab (n = 48) or to ratg (n = 50) induction; 77 (79%) underwent kidney alone (ka) transplant, 17 (17%) pan ... | 2008 | 18217904 |
| infection with bartonella weissii and detection of nanobacterium antigens in a north carolina beef herd. | very recently, bartonella organisms have been isolated from large ruminants (deer, elk, and dairy and beef cattle) located in the united states and in france. in this study, we report the serologic, microbiologic, and molecular findings related to the isolation of a bartonella species in north carolina beef cattle and the detection of nanobacterial antigen using a commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. between august 1998 and september 1999, blood was collected from 38 cattle ... | 2001 | 11230398 |
| characterization of lyme disease spirochetes isolated from ticks and vertebrates in north carolina. | borrelia burgdorferi isolates obtained from numerous locations and from different hosts in north carolina, were compared to previously characterized strains of the lyme disease spirochete and other borrelia spp. the spirochete isolates were confirmed to be b. burgdorferi sensu stricto based on immunofluorescence (ifa) using a monoclonal antibody to outer surface protein a (osp a [h5332]) and polymerase chain reaction (pcr) using a species-specific nested primer for a conserved region of the gene ... | 2000 | 10682743 |
| relative abundance and species composition of mosquito populations (diptera:culicidae) in a la crosse virus-endemic area in western north carolina. | container surveys were conducted in 5 communities on the cherokee indian reservation, an area of western north carolina endemic for transmission of la crosse (lac) virus, to determine the potential for peridomestic mosquito breeding, the relative abundance of mosquito species, and the standing crop of mosquitoes per residence. eleven species of mosquitoes were collected, but 80.9% of all mosquitoes reared from containers were aedes triseriatus (say). all communities averaged > 6 containers per r ... | 1996 | 8699454 |
| spirochetes in ticks and antibodies to borrelia burgdorferi in white-tailed deer from connecticut, new york state, and north carolina. | ticks were screened for spirochetes and serum samples from white-tailed deer (odocoileus virginianus) were assayed for antibodies to borrelia burgdorferi during 1983-1984. using fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled rabbit antibodies produced to b. burgdorferi, the etiologic agent of lyme disease, spirochetes were detected in ixodes dammini (10.5% of 1,193) and dermacentor albipictus (0.6% of 157) adults from connecticut, i. dammini nymphs (49.1% of 108) and adults (64.7% of 99) from armonk, new yo ... | 1986 | 3520030 |
| host-feeding patterns of aedes albopictus (diptera: culicidae) in relation to availability of human and domestic animals in suburban landscapes of central north carolina. | aedes albopictus (skuse) (diptera: culicidae) is a major nuisance mosquito and a potential arbovirus vector. the host-feeding patterns of ae. albopictus were investigated during the 2002 and 2003 mosquito seasons in suburban neighborhoods in wake county, raleigh, nc. hosts of blood-fed ae. albopictus (n = 1,094) were identified with an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, by using antisera made in new zealand white rabbits to the sera of animals that would commonly occur in peridomestic h ... | 2006 | 16739414 |
