Aims: To determine the prevalence of Arcobacter in various food, animal and water sources Turkey to subtype isolated strains using enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus (ERIC)‐PCR. Methods Results: A total 806 samples consisting chicken (100) turkey meat (100); minced beef (27); rectal swabs from cattle (173), sheep (68) dogs (62); cloacal broilers layers gall bladders (50) drinking (26) were examined. previously described membrane filtration method was used for isolation. Isolates...
This study was carried out to investigate the molecular prevalence of Francisella-like endosymbionts (FLEs) and Francisella tularensis in ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) mosquitoes Turkey. Genomic DNA pools were constructed from a total 1477 adult hard Rhipicephalus (Rh.) annulatus, Rh. turanicus, sanguineus, bursa, Haemaphysalis (Hae.) parva, Hae. sulcata, Hyalomma marginatum marginatum, H. anatolicum anatolicum, excavatum, detritum detritum, dromedarii, Dermacentor marginatus, Ixodes ricinus...
A group of 24 wild starlings (Sturnus vulgaris), in undefined age categories but at least post-pubertal, constituted the material this study. Six were kept as a control and 18 served infection group. The infected with inoculums 1.35 x 10(6)/0.2 ml Aspergillus fumigatus via intratracheal route whereas was administered only placebo same way. Six, four, two, four two birds died on 2, 3, 4, 5 6 days post inoculation respectively. At necropsy dead birds, caseous foci determined lungs, air sacks,...
This study aimed to experimentally induce Salmonella enterica subsp. serovar Enteritidis (Salmonella Gallinarum) infection in turkey poults order detect S. Gallinarum using immunohistochemical, bacteriological, and histological procedures. The included 90 white that were divided into 3 groups (1-day-old, 3-week-old, 2-month-old), each of which was orally inoculated with an inoculum 0.3 mL strain 9 broth culture contained approximately 2 × 10^4, 1 10^6, 10^9 cfu/mL, respectively. duration the...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the passive transfer (PT) status goat kids by Brix refractometry and compare results with other semiquantitative tests (total protein - TP, glutaraldehyde coagulation test GCT, gamma-glutamyltransferase GGT) immunoglobulin G (IgG). conducted on 75 born from 47 Saanen goats. blood samples were collected day 0 (presuckling) 1st, 2nd, 3rd days after birth. Brix% TP concentrations measured refractometers, GGT activity using a dry chemistry system. duration...
In this study, the seroprevalence of Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis, causative agent caseous lymphadenitis (CLA) infection, in Kangal Akkaraman sheep flocks was examined. For purpose, blood samples were collected from 25 different (n = 379). According to ELISA results, numbers CLA-positive and CLA-negative 138 (36.4%) 241 (63.6%), respectively. CLA positivity observed 35.7% females 241), 37.7% males 138), 40.2% with clinical symptoms 184), 32.8% no 195) (P > 0.05). We concluded that C....
Summary The study aimed to assess Campylobacter jejuni prevalence in chicken meat, biofilm formation, virulence factors, antibiotic resistance, and molecular typing. In the study, 200 meat samples were collected from local outlets 51 (25.5%) isolates identified as C. . Resistance rates ampicillin, tetracycline, sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim, ciprofloxacin 59%, 60%, 64%, 64% respectively. Many of (49%) exhibited multidrug resistance. Beta‐lactamase tetracycline resistance genes found 82.3%...
Summary This study was performed to investigate (i) the clinical, histopathological and biochemical changes in quails ( Coturnix coturnix japonica ) with experimentally induced aspergillosis; (ii) efficiency of itraconazole treatment on these infected birds. A total 180 21‐day‐old male randomly divided into three groups (control, untreated treated), each containing 60. The experimental infection set by intratracheal inoculation 0.2 ml inoculum Aspergillus fumigatus (CBS 113.26 strain)...
In this study, the presence of paratuberculosis was investigated by serological and molecular methods in herds dairy cattle. Blood, milk, stool samples 147 cows aged 2 years old or older with chronic diarrhea were collected. A California mastitis test (CMT) performed on milk samples. Indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) used for investigation. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) utilized identification Mycobacterium avium subsp. (MAP) from Immunomagnetic separation (IMS) method...
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects use Theranekron alone or in combination with intramammary antibiotic therapy for treatment subclinical and clinical mastitis on recovery rate from mastitis. material composed 177 mammary lobes 63 Holstein cows (groups S1 S2) C1, C2, C3, C4). In all groups, excluding group S2, California test scores were determined have decreased after (P < 0.05). groups C4, which treated mastitis, somatic cell count (SCC) values observed decreased....
The aim of this study was the isolation, identification, phylogenetic analysis and antifungal susceptibility Candida spp. from milk samples healthy mastitic cows in Kayseri/Turkey. Milk 300 were found to be negative/positive for mastitis with California Mastitis Test. isolated by using Brillance Agar Base. Phenotypic tests, Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization - Time Flight (MALDI-TOF), VITEK-2 analyses applied confirm obtained isolates. Resistance flucytosine, fluconazole caspofungin...
The aims of this study were to investigate the presence Escherichia coli O157 and determine antibiotic susceptibility isolates in different poultry-originated materials. In total 300 samples chicken carcass swabs (n = 50), feces gizzard liver water final scald tank equipment such as tables, conveyers, knives 50) used Overall, 45 E. obtained from poultry samples. However, 13 (4.3%) identified including 3 liver, carcass, 7 fecal All positive for but negative H7 using PCR. Only intimin (encoded...
Paratuberculosis (pTB), also known as Johne's disease (JD), is a contagious, chronic, and granulomatous inflammatory of the intestines ruminants which caused by Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) infection, resulting in billions dollars economic losses worldwide. Since, currently, no effective cure available for MAP it important to explore genetic variants that affect host susceptibility. The aim this study was analyze potential association between EDN2 synonymous gene...
In this study, we aimed to evaluate the microbiological, molecular and pathological findings of abortus cases detected in a sheep herd consist 200 animals.Macroscopically, irregular necrotic foci were observed liver aborted fetuses.Selective non-selective media used for isolation causative agent.Phenotypic tests performed identification.Campylobacter fetus subsp.fetus (Cff ) was isolated from organs four foetuses aborted.While vaginal swap samples taken that did not abort, water, feed litter...
Campylobacter sp. are important causes of reproductive disease in ruminants worldwide. Although healthy bulls well‐known carriers for infection cows, the role rams as a potential source infecting ewes is unclear. This study aimed to determine prevalence, species distribution, genetic diversity and antimicrobial susceptibility profiles isolated from preputial cavity rams. The material this prospective comprised 191 swab samples taken Enrichment membrane filtration were employed isolation...
