Balanoposthitis, dyspareunia, and treponema in the critically endangered Gilbert's potoroo (Potorous gilbertii).The Gilbert's potoroo (Potorous gilbertii) is one of Australia's most critically endangered mammals with a current estimated population of 70 individuals. Both the wild and captive populations have a long history of balanoposthitis with associated crusting, ulceration, and preputial discharge. We sought to identify the microbial species found in the discharge, determine their significance in causing balanoposthitis, and correlate these findings with reproductive success and survivorship. Bacteri ...201122102677
polymerase chain reaction-based identification of clinically relevant pasteurellaceae isolated from cats and dogs in poland.a set of polymerase chain reaction (pcr) assays for identification of the most important pasteurellaceae species encountered in cats and dogs were developed. primers for pasteurella multocida were designed to detect a fragment of the kmt, a gene encoding the outer-membrane protein. primers specific to pasteurella canis, pasteurella dagmatis, and pasteurella stomatis were based on the manganese-dependent superoxide dismutase gene (soda) and those specific to [haemophilus] haemoglobinophilus on sp ...201121908285
pasteurella haemolytica infections in sheep.summary pasteurella haemolytica causes two distinct disease syndromes in sheep. p. haemolytica biotype a causes septicaemia in young lambs and pneumonia in all ages of sheep. biotype t produces an acute systemic disease affecting principally the upper alimentary tract and lungs in young adult sheep. the bacteriology, epidemiology and clinical and necropsy findings of the two diseases are described and the current situation regarding their experimental reproduction and immunology is reviewed.198022039979
[Isolation and identification of dominant microorganisms in rhizosphere of continuous cropping with peanut].We isolated and identified dominant microorganisms from the rhizosphere of continuous cropping with peanut, to study the relationship between dominant microorganisms and peanut continuous cropping.201121866710
aerobic oral and rectal bacteria of free-ranging steller sea lion pups and juveniles (eumetopias jubatus) in alaska.bacteriologic cultures from oral, rectal, and lesion samples from free-ranging steller sea lion (ssl, eumetopias jubatus) pups and juveniles in alaska (2001-2005) were examined to determine frequency of infection by a specific subset of common and pathogenic aerobic bacteria. associations between isolated bacteria and age, sex, body condition, location, and sampling season were investigated. salmonella spp. isolates were further evaluated to determine spatial clustering (n=48) and to identify se ...201122102651
microbial ecology of swine farms and prrs vaccine vaccination strategies.the present study investigated the microbial ecology and vaccination strategies against porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (prrs) in field condition. four representative farms with a history of prrs were included in this study. over the almost 3-year period, the average detection rate was 68.9%, making prrsv the first most frequently detected virus, followed by porcine circovirus type 2 (pcv2) (64.2%), pseudorabies virus (prv) (11.03%) and classical swine fever virus (csfv) (4.41%). s ...201122014373
glutathione biosynthesis in bacteria by bifunctional gshf is driven by a modular structure featuring a novel hybrid atp-grasp fold.glutathione is an intracellular redox-active tripeptide thiol with a central role in cellular physiology across all kingdoms of life. glutathione biosynthesis has been traditionally viewed as a conserved process relying on the sequential activity of two separate ligases, but recently, an enzyme (gshf) that unifies both necessary reactions in one platform has been identified and characterized in a number of pathogenic and free-living bacteria. here, we report crystal structures of two prototypic ...201122226834
Pasteurella multocida Infection in a Neonate: Evidence for a Human-to-Human Horizontal Transmission.Pasteurella multocida is usually transmitted by animal contact but in a significant proportion of cases no animal exposure can be identified. Although vertical transmission has been identified in neonates, horizontal human-to-human spread has not been documented. A case of neonatal sepsis and meningitis resulting from horizontal transmission of P. multocida is described.201122198826
efficacy and safety of a new 450 mg/ml florfenicol formulation administered intramuscularly in the treatment of bacterial bovine respiratory disease.the objective of the study was the safety and efficacy evaluation of a new 450 mg/ml florfenicol formulation in the treatment of naturally occurring respiratory disease when administered intramuscularly, compared with a positive control group treated with the well-established 300 mg/ml formulation. a total of 174 calves, selected from five sites in france and spain, aged from 1 to 17 months, showing severe signs of respiratory disease, were randomly assigned to treatment with either the 300 mg/m ...201121921060
life-threatening respiratory pasteurellosis associated with palliative pet care.pasteurella multocida is a zoonotic gram-negative cocco-bacillus often associated with soft tissue infections due to dog and cat bites. here we report 3 patients who developed life-threatening p. multocida respiratory tract infections after providing palliative care to their dying pets.201222238163
