corynebacterium equi infection complicating neoplastic disease.corynebacterium equi, a soil-residing diphtheroid pathogenic in horses, swine and cows, caused pulmonary infection with bacteremia in two patients with lymphomas. both patients were being treated with immunosuppressive therapy, as were the patients in three previously reported human cases. unless certain characteristics of these organisms are recognized, they may be regarded as normal flora or contaminating diphtheroids. they could also be mistaken for other gram-positive rods, such as bacillus ...1977326031
[erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae infections. general review of 31 cases of septicemia with endocarditis reported in the literature (author's transl)].erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae is widely distributed in nature (animal, soil). it is commonly known as the causative agent of cutaneous lesions called "erysipeloid of rosenbach". only 31 cases of bacterial endocarditis have been reported in the literature. the etiologic diagnosis of esysipelothrix infection was established by the presence of bacteria in blood cultures or heart-valve cultures. immunological study is unusual owing to the rapid course of the infection. the histologic observation of h ...1977327415
the variable response of bacteria to excess ferric iron in host tissues.the enhancement by exogenous ferric iron, both systemic and local, of the infectivity of 120 strains of bacteria, representing 17 genera, was measured in the skin of guinea-pigs. systemic iron enhanced only 23% of 115 strains, and local iron 49% of 71 strains. systemic iron, by an apparently anti-inflammatory action, depressed the size of lesions produced by 27 of the non-enhanced strains from nine of the genera tested. for most strains, the degree of enhancement was small, ranging from 2- to 8- ...1979372534
[experimental study on erysipeloid arthritis in the rabbit after blockage of lymph drainage].the lymph drainage was radically blocked in 29 rabbits. one to three days after the operation erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae was inoculated subcutaneously into the animals. some control animals were injected with agents of erysipelas and some only with the sterile solution without additional blockade of the lymph drainage. light and electron microscopy as well as immuno-histological tests showed that the erysipelas arthritis developing in rabbits closely resembles human rheumatoid arthritis with e ...1979392987
serological classification of australian strains of erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae isolated from pigs, sheep, turkeys and man.154 strains of erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae from pigs, sheep, turkeys and man were serotyped by using the double diffusion gel precipitation test. ten of the 18 serotypes were detected in 151 of the strains. three strains failed to react with any of the type specific antisera. it was found that serotype 1a shared an antigen(s) with serotype 1b, and that serotype 6 shared an antigen(s) with serotype 14. serotype 2a and 2b were difficult to distinguish. since serotypes 1 and 2 were isolated from c ...1979444165

serological assay for swine erysipelas using nitrocellulose particles impregnated with an immunodominant 65 kda antigen from erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae.pigs (n = 10) that were experimentally challenged with an arthritogenic isolate of erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae (strain vrs 229; serotype 1a) developed arthritis in at least one of twelve major limb joints. immunoblots using sera obtained from these pigs at necropsy revealed a major band of immunoreactivity against a subunit polypeptide of apparent molecular mass 65 kda. the usefulness of the 65 kda immunodominant subunit as an assay reagent in an elisa test was examined by presentation of antig ...19921626367
cloning and expression in escherichia coli of a protective antigen of erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae.erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae is a primary pathogen of swine and turkeys and sporadic cause of disease in a variety of other hosts, including humans. a genomic library of the highly virulent strain of e. rhusiopathiae e1-6p was constructed in the expression-cloning vector lambda gt11 and screened with serum from a pig convalescent from an e. rhusiopathiae experimental infection. immunoreactive clones were screened for their ability to protectively immunized mice. two clones, lambda gt11/ersa and ...19901696940
characterization of a protective protein antigen of erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae.although vaccination is widely practiced against infection by erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae in pigs and turkeys, the protective antigen(s) involved have not been fully characterized or purified to homogeneity. antigens of e. rhusiopathiae strain t28, serotype 2b, and of frankfurt xi, serotype n, in culture supernatant and in extracts made with hot acid, 10 mm naoh, ultrasound or edta were compared by sds-page and immunoblotting and in a mouse protection test. edta and 10 mm naoh yielded highly pr ...19911752312

[endocarditis caused cy erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae. study of 2 cases and review of the literature].endocarditis produced by e. rhusiopathiae is a uncommon disease. most of the infected persons (90%) work in environments with frequent exposure to e. rhusiopathiae (butchers, fisherman). although the clinical picture of endocarditis produced by e. rhusiopathiae is indistinguishable from other forms of subacute endocarditis, this infection has a mortality rate of 40% and a high morbidity. microbiological diagnosis should consider the possibility of making a mistake considering that isolation of a ...19911854835

[erysipelas in the roe deer--a case report].an infection of a young male roe deer caused by erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae with a pronounced thrombotic endocarditis in the left valves and focal necrosis in the septum of the heart leading to bacterial sepsis is described. findings of this kind are extremely rare in roe deer. however, they document the wide host range, which is also illustrated by the numerous publications on such infections in other species.19912048108
