| polyphasic taxonomy leading to the proposal of moraxella canis sp. nov. for moraxella catarrhalis-like strains. | the taxonomic position of a group of 16 moraxella catarrhalis-like strains, isolated mainly from dogs, was examined by using morphological tests, biochemical tests, serology, ribotyping with oligonucleotide probes, polymerase chain reaction typing of the 16s rrna gene and the 16s-23s rrna gene spacer region, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of total proteins, fatty acid profiles, moles percent g+c, dot spot and in-solution dna-dna hybridizations, and dna-rrna hybridizations. it was found that ... | 1993 | 8347504 |
| isolation of moraxella canis from an ulcerated metastatic lymph node. | moraxella canis was isolated in large numbers from an ulcerated supraclavicular lymph node of a terminal patient, who died a few days later. although the patient presented with septic symptoms and with a heavy growth of gram-negative diplococci in the lymph node, blood cultures remained negative. m. canis is an upper-airway commensal from dogs and cats and is considered nonpathogenic for humans, although this is the third reported human isolate of this species. | 2000 | 11015424 |
| a case of moraxella canis-associated wound infection. | moraxella canis was isolated from an infected foot ulcer in a patient suffering from diabetes mellitus with neuropathy. bacteriological findings and 16s rdna data are presented. | 2001 | 11233854 |

| outbreaks of keratoconjunctivitis in a camel herd caused by a specific biovar of moraxella canis. | two tributyrin hydrolysis-negative moraxella isolates obtained in cases of keratoconjunctivitis in camelus dromedarius in the canary islands showed highest degrees of 16s rrna gene sequence similarity to moraxella canis. a level of dna relatedness to the m. canis type strain of 79% confirmed the identity of the isolates as a tributyrin hydrolysis-negative biovar of m. canis. | 2010 | 20032257 |
| in vitro activity of pexiganan and 10 comparator antimicrobials against 234 isolates including 93 pasteurella spp. and 50 anaerobic bacteria recovered from animal bite wounds. | animal bite wounds affect more than 5 million americans resulting in 300,000 emergency department visits, 10,000 hospitalizations and untold number of physician office visits annually. various forms of topical therapy are empirically self-employed by many patients prior to seeking medical attention. pexiganan, a 22-amino acid synthetic cationic analogue of peptide magainin ii, acts by selectively damaging bacterial cell membranes. we determined the mics for pexiganan and other antimicrobial agen ... | 2017 | 28373186 |
