bacterial and mycoplasma flora of a laboratory colony of the common marmoset (callithrix jacchus).a survey was carried out to characterise the bacterial and mycoplasma flora of a closed colony of marmosets, callithrix jacchus. bordetella bronchiseptica and staphylococcus aureus were the only potential bacterial pathogens isolated from the colony; candida albicans was also identified. s aureus and c albicans were the only organisms which were associated with macroscopic lesions or overt disease. post mortem examination of the animals proved only reliable method of establishing the presence of ...1978102075
a comparison of bacterial flora isolated by transtracheal aspiration and pharyngeal swabs in macaca fascicularis.the pulmonary flora of 30 monkeys (macaca fascicularis) was sampled by the transtracheal aspiration technique and the pharyngeal swab method, and the results were compared. the transtracheal aspiration technique yielded lower numbers of bacteria in both aerobic and anaerobic cultures. the bacteria isolated by transtracheal aspiration were predominately pure culture, thereby lowering the possibility of contamination from commensal flora. bordetella bronchiseptica was isolated from 23.3% of the mo ...1979110978
[devitalization of bordetella bronchiseptica in vitro using vapors of persterile and triethyl glycol].using the method of bacterial carriers, the devitalizing effect was studied of persteril and triethylene glycol vapours, acting in vitro, on a 24-hour culture of a mixture of 39 strains of bordetella bronchiseptica, isolated from the nasal cavity of pigs which came from five stocks suffering from the clinical form atrophic rhinitis. after exposure of the carriers of bordetella bronchiseptica to the action of spontaneously developing vapours o the mentioned chemicals, the devitalizing effect was ...1979111400
identification of nonfermentative gram-negative bacteria in the clinical laboratory.a simplified, concise scheme was developed for the identification of nonfermentative, gram-negative bacteria which have most frequently been reported in the literature as definite or possible agents of human disease. these organisms included apyocyanogenic pseudomonas aeruginosa, p. fluorescens, p. putida, p. stutzeri, p. maltophilia, p. putrefaciens, p. cepacia, p. alcaligenes, flavobacterium species, bordetella bronchiseptica, acinetobacter anitratum (herellea vaginicola), a. iwoffi (mima poly ...1975163060
relationship of porcine cytomegalovirus and b bronchiseptica to atrophic rhinitis in gnotobiotic piglets.both porcine cytomegalovirus (pcmv) and bordetella bronchiseptica produced rhinitis and pneumonia when inoculated intranasally into young gnotobiotic pigs. with pcmv the nasal lesions were confirmed to the lamina propria, while bordetella produced atrophy of the turbinate bones and hyperplasia and degeneration of the nasal epithelium. some exacerbation of the lesions was observed in the nasal mucosa of pigs given both agents, but the degree of bone atrophy was not increased.1976176765
a study of dogs with kennel cough.a detailed study of a population of dogs with kennel cough was undertaken. twenty-seven (77 per cent) of a total of 35 dogs had pathological evidence of respiratory disease in the form of tracheobronchitis with, in some animals, exudative pneumonia. a variety of viral and bacterial agents were isolated from the respiratory tract of diseased dogs but bordetella bronchiseptica and canine parainfluenza virus sv-5 appeared to be the most significant organisms recovered.1978207006
phosphatase activity of aerobic and facultative anaerobic bacteria.1115 strains of aerobic and facultatively anaerobic bacteria were tested for phosphatase activity by a conventional plate method and a microtest. the microtest was devised to allow results to be read after 4 h cultivation. phosphatase activity was found in wide range of species and strains. besides staphylococci, where the test for phosphatase is successfully used, it may be applied as one of the valuable tests for the differentiation of the following species: bacillus cereus, b. licheniformis, ...1978216188

cloning and sequencing of the structural gene for the porin protein of bordetella pertussis.bordetella pertussis produces a porin protein which is a prominent outer membrane component found in both virulent and avirulent strains. n-terminal amino acid analysis of purified b. pertussis porin was performed and this amino acid sequence was used to design an oligonucleotide that was then utilized to screen a lambda gt11 library containing randomly sheared fragments of dna from b. pertussis strain 347. one clone, lambda bppor, was identified and subcloned into puc18. a portion of the dna in ...19911658537
otitis media of guinea pigs.otitis media occurred in 177 of 1373 guinea pigs necropsied during a six-year period. streptococcus pneumoniae (20%), streptococcus zooepidemicus (15%), bordetella bronchiseptica (12%), and pseudomonas aeruginosa (11%) were the most common bacteria isolated from affected tympanic bullae. radiology and otoscopy were tested as means of antemortem screening for affected guinea pigs. radiology gave 96% accuracy in diagnosing otitis media and proved to be a more satisfactory technique than otoscopy.197614279
construction of minitransposons for constitutive and inducible expression of pertussis toxin in bvg-negative bordetella bronchiseptica.appropriately detoxified pertussis toxin (pt) of bordetella pertussis is considered to be an essential component of new-generation whooping cough vaccines, but the development of a procedure to obtain high levels of purified toxin has been and continues to be a major difficulty. to produce a system enabling the biological separation of pt from other virulence determinants of b. pertussis and the attainment of high yields of the toxin, minitransposons containing the pt operon were constructed and ...19911682257
some factors influencing the haemolysis of bordetella bronchiseptica.strain-dependent variations in the ability of bordetella bronchiseptica to produce haemolysis on solid media exist. haemolysis is strongest at an acid reaction and will not take place if the reaction is too alkaline. peptone and glutamine inhibit haemolysis and favour growth. the vigorous growth rapidly produced an alkaline reaction which inhibits the haemolysis.19765844
production of recombinant bordetella pertussis serotype 2 fimbriae in bordetella parapertussis and bordetella bronchiseptica: utility of escherichia coli gene expression signals.serotype-specific fimbriae of bordetella pertussis are considered potential components of new-generation vaccines against whooping cough. attempts to characterize fimbriae, and indeed other virulence determinants, produced by b. pertussis have been frustrated on one hand by low yields from b. pertussis itself and on the other by an inability to produce native recombinant products in escherichia coli. in order to try to circumvent this problem, we have examined the expression of b. pertussis sero ...19911708358
bronchoalveolar lavage fluid cytology reflects airway inflammation in beagle puppies with acute bronchiolitis.beagle puppies infected with both canine parainfluenza virus type 2 (cpi2) and bordetella bronchiseptica (bb) develop more severe acute bronchiolitis and airways hyperresponsiveness than do those infected with cpi2 or bb alone. the aim of our study was to characterize the inflammatory response associated with airway hyperresponsiveness, and to determine whether the inflammatory cell response of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (balf) reflected changes in the bronchioles in this model. we investigate ...19921319565
a vir-repressed gene of bordetella pertussis is required for virulence.coordinate regulation of gene expression in bordetella pertussis is controlled by the products of the vir locus, bvga and bvgs. in the presence of modulating signals such as mgso4 and nicotinic acid, expression of vir-activated genes (vag) is reduced, while expression of vir-repressed genes (vrg) is maximal. we have cloned one of these vir-repressed genes, vrg-6, in escherichia coli. dna sequencing has shown that vrg-6 is contained on a single ecori restriction endonuclease fragment and is predi ...19921730491
