| epidemiology of paratuberculosis in wild ruminants studied by restriction fragment length polymorphism in the czech republic during the period 1995-1998. | in two studies carried out during the period 1995-1998, paratuberculosis was diagnosed in domestic and wild ruminants in the czech republic. the isolated mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis strains were analysed by standardised restriction fragment length polymorphism (rflp) [pavlik, i., horvathova, a., dvorska, l., bartl, j., svastova, p., du maine, r., rychlik, i., 1999. j. microbiol. methods 38, 155-167]. in december 1992, 19 late pregnant charolais heifers were imported to the cz ... | 2000 | 11118709 |
| paratuberculosis in farmed and free-living wild ruminants in the czech republic (1999-2001). | due to the occurrence of the infection of mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis among domestic ruminants and the rapid development of farmed deer industry and the market of cloven-hoofed game we have carried surveys of paratuberculosis, beginning in 1997, in the most common four species of wild ruminants in the czech republic [pavlik et al., vet. microbiol. 77 (2000) 231-251]. from 1999 the prevalence of paratuberculosis has been slightly reduced in all three types of husbandry of wild ... | 2004 | 15261995 |
| [mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis in wild animal species and cattle in styria/austria]. | infections with mycobacterium ovium ssp. paratuberculosis (m. paratuberculosis) are increasingly recognised worldwide. in addition to an increased prevalence of paratuberculosis in austrian cattle herds, recent years have also shown a rise in infections with m. paratuberculosis in wild red and roe deer, chamois and mouflon. during the period from june 2002 to september 2004, mesenteric lymph nodes were taken from a total of 483 wild animals hunted or found dead and from 338 deceased cattle. samp ... | 2005 | 16048043 |
| soil and plant contamination with mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis after exposure to naturally contaminated mouflon feces. | the aim of this study was to demonstrate the persistence of mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (map) in soil and colonization of different plant parts after deliberate exposure to mouflon feces naturally contaminated with different amounts of map. samples of aerial parts of plants, their roots, and the soil below the roots were collected after 15 weeks and examined using is900 real-time quantitative pcr (qpcr) and cultivation. although the presence of viable map cells was not demonstrat ... | 2011 | 21279514 |
| spread of mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis through soil and grass on a mouflon (ovis aries) pasture. | the aims of this study were to describe spatial contamination of the environment on a mouflon pasture, as well as to assess the contamination of grass and roots after surface contamination and in depth contamination with feces and buried tissues from animals infected with mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (m. a. paratuberculosis). samples of soil, roots, and aerial parts of plants were collected from different locations inside the mouflon pasture, and one control sample site was chosen ... | 2014 | 24880776 |
| influence of stress connected with moving to a new farm on potentially map-infected mouflons. | there is no european legislation concerning paratuberculosis that requires that imported animals be kept in quarantine and commonly they are directly released into areas with other animals. in this study, detection of latent infection of paratuberculosis in healthy mouflons previously diagnosed as paratuberculosis-free, but originating from a real time quantitative pcr- (qpcr-) positive herd, occurred after their transport to a new farm. during a twelve-day quarantine period, all mouflons irregu ... | 2014 | 24729908 |
