genetic diversity of actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae assessed by amplified fragment length polymorphism analysis.amplified fragment length polymorphism (aflp) was evaluated as a method for genotypic characterization and subtyping within the bacterial species actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae. a total of 155 isolates of a. pleuropneumoniae, representing the serotypic variation described to occur within this species, were analyzed. in order to elucidate the species boundaries, six strains of the phylogenetically closely related species actinobacillus lignieresii were also included. furthermore, the ability of ...200717959758
[the relationship between p300 latency and regional cerebral blood flow in patients with cerebral infarction in the territory of the deep perforators].we studied the relationship between p300 latency and regional cerebral blood flow (rcbf) in nondemented patients with cerebral infarction. subjects were 24 nondemented patients (mean age 64.1 years) who had a ct-proven infarct in the territory of the deep perforators of the internal carotid artery system and 53 controls (mean age 64.1 years). prolongation of p300 latency with advancing age was observed in the both groups. there was no significant difference in p300 latency and rcbf between the t ...20071914321
development of a multiplex pcr test for identification of actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae serovars 1, 7, and 12.a pcr assay for simultaneous species identification and separation of actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae serovars 1, 7 and 12 was developed. primers specific for genes involved in biosynthesis of the capsular polysaccharides (cps genes) of serovars 1, 7, and 12 were combined with a species-specific pcr test based on the omla gene. the pcr test was evaluated with the serovar reference strains of a. pleuropneumoniae as well as 183 danish field isolates. for all typable strains, a complete corresponde ...200818572332
orbus hercynius gen. nov., sp. nov., isolated from faeces of wild boar, is most closely related to members of the orders 'enterobacteriales' and pasteurellales.a novel gammaproteobacterium, strain cn3(t), was isolated from the faeces of wild boar. strain cn3(t) was facultatively anaerobic and appeared coccoid or rod-shaped. the partial 16s rrna gene sequence determined for strain cn3(t) suggested a distant relationship with members of the orders 'enterobacteriales' and pasteurellales. the gene sequence showed highest similarity (90.3 %) with obesumbacterium proteus dsm 2777(t), a member of the family enterobacteriaceae. the closest relatives outside th ...201020023064
genetic diversity of actinobacillus lignieresii isolates from different hosts.genetic diversity detected by analysis of amplified fragment length polymorphisms (aflps) of 54 actinobacillus lignieresii isolates from different hosts and geographic localities is described. on the basis of variances in aflp profiles, the strains were grouped in two major clusters; one comprising strains isolated from horses and infected wounds of humans bitten by horses and another consisting of strains isolated from bovine and ovine hosts. the present data indicate a comparatively higher deg ...201121303512
classification of avian haemolytic actinobacillus-like organisms (bisgaard taxon 26) associated with anseriforme birds as actinobacillus anseriformium sp. nov.avian haemolytic actinobacillus-like organisms have tentatively been named bisgaard taxon 26. phenotypic information has been published on 65 strains of this taxon. in the current study, 31 isolates were selected for genotypic characterization. thirty strains had the same rpob sequence and only one strain diverged in one nt. the highest rpob similarity to other taxa of 89.7 % was obtained to the type strain of actinobacillus equuli subsp. haemolyticus and the similarity to the type strain of the ...201121441378
[improved diagnosis of extrauterine pregnancy by endosonography].between july 1987 and january 1988, 44 patients with a tentative diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy underwent sonographic examination by means of vaginal probe at the department of gynecology and obstetrics of the rwth aachen. the sonographic findings, all of which were confirmed by subsequent clinical and or surgical clarification, were as follows: an ectopic pregnancy was diganosed in 16 cases, an early intrauterine pregnancy in seven, an intrauterine abortion in seven, and in one case a uterine m ...20113041693

frederiksenia canicola gen. nov., sp. nov. isolated from dogs and human dog-bite wounds.polyphasic analysis was done on 24 strains of bisgaard taxon 16 from five european countries and mainly isolated from dogs and human dog-bite wounds. the isolates represented a phenotypically and genetically homogenous group within the family pasteurellaceae. their phenotypic profile was similar to members of the genus pasteurella. matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry clearly identified taxon 16 and separated it from all other genera of pasteurellaceae sho ...201424510449
duplex carotid sonography: criteria for stenosis, accuracy, and pitfalls.both carotid bifurcations were examined in 353 patients over a 20-month interval using a combination of real-time and pulsed doppler ultrasound (duplex scanning). angiographic correlation was available in 72 cases. stenosis of the internal carotid was evaluated using a doppler input frequency of 5 mhz and a scan angle of 60 degrees. a peak frequency shift of less than 3.5 khz was found to be a sign of less than or equal to 30% stenosis; 3.5-4 khz with moderate turbulence suggested 31-50% stenosi ...20143880910
insulin antibodies in patients receiving penicillamine.in a patient receiving penicillamine for treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, antibodies to insulin developed, which resulted in symptomatic hypoglycemia. when 30 additional patients receiving penicillamine were screened, another patient was discovered to have antibodies to insulin. the level of antibody fell sharply in both patients after penicillamine was discontinued. this particular immunologic reaction to penicillamine has not been reported previously.20143993664
a retrospective study of equine actinobacillosis cases: 1999-2011.several actinobacillus spp. are common commensal bacteria of the oral cavity, gastrointestinal tract, and reproductive tract of horses and can cause disease in both foals and adults. the current retrospective study was designed to review actinobacillus spp. isolated from clinical samples or necropsies of 99 horses during 1999-2011. the cases consisted of 43 foals (<6 months of age), 4 young adults (6 months-2 years), 39 adults (>2 years of age), 2 aborted fetuses, and 11 with unspecified ages. c ...201424742921
[severe purulent and necrotizing glossitis in a fallow deer (dama dama) due to an infection with the involvement of mannheimia granulomatis].post mortem examination of a young fallow deer (dama dama) revealed a severe purulent and necrotizing glossitis as well as a multifocal necrotizing and ulcerative rumenitis and typhlitis. the animal was cachectic. mannheimia (m.) sp. was isolated from the tongue lesions and identified as m. granulomatis by maldi-tof ms and 16s rrna sequencing. mycosis and bvdv infection were excluded. few publications are dealing with similar macroscopic findings associated with the isolation of m. granulomatis ...201526281440
