| detection of pneumocystis infections by in situ hybridization in lung samples of austrian pigs with interstitial pneumonia. | pneumocystis carinii f. sp. suis is a fungus multiplying in the respiratory tract of pigs which occasionally is associated with interstitial pneumonia. identification of pneumocystis in tissue samples is considered difficult and there are only scarce data on its occurrence in european pigs. this investigation presents an in situ hybridization (ish) procedure for identification of pneumocystis spp. in paraffin wax embedded tissue samples and its application for labeling the agent in lung samples ... | 2014 | 23859080 |
| establishment of a quantitative real-time pcr for the detection of pneumocystis carinii f. sp. suis in bronchoalveolar lavage samples from pigs. | respiratory diseases in pigs are mostly polymicrobial, and the involved pathogens can vary from farm to farm. the impact of pneumocystis carinii (p. c.) f. sp. suis on respiratory disorders has not been comprehensively appraised because tests were limited to lung tissue samples and, for this reason, it was not possible to detect the fungus in living animals. in the present study, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (balf) from 12 pigs and oral fluid samples from 9 pigs were tested for the presence of p ... | 2016 | 27026107 |
| study of the epidemiology of pneumocystis carinii f. sp. suis in abattoir swine in portugal. | pneumocystis has been identified in various mammalian species, including domestic, wild and zoo animals. this study's main objectives were: (1) to estimate the prevalence of the pneumocystis carinii f. sp. suis infection in slaughtered pigs in portugal, (2) assess the prevalence differences within distinct age groups of animals, (3) determine the possible associations between pulmonary lesions and the infection, and (4) genetically characterize the p. carinii f. sp. suis isolates recovered from ... | 2013 | 22852751 |
| comparison of pneumocystis nucleic acid and antibody profiles and their associations with other respiratory pathogens in two austrian pig herds. | pneumocystis carinii f. sp. suis (pcs) nucleic acid and antibody profiles on two austrian-farrow-to-finish farms were investigated. furthermore, associations with other respiratory pathogens were evaluated. respiratory specimen and sera from pigs of five age classes between the 1st week and the 3rd month of life as well as samples from sows were analyzed. on farm a, pcs infection occurred early in life. the suckling piglets were already infected in the 1st week of life and the pigs remained posi ... | 2017 | 28945819 |
