Edwardsiella tarda infections are frequent causes of severe outbreaks in the fish farming industry besides representing possible zoonotic risks. However, naturally occurring that affect various species fishes seldom described.To report an outbreak acute mortality caused by E. affecting multiple inhabited a natural pond state São Paulo, Brazil.Three adult tilapias, three Mallard ducks and one Snow egret were necropsied subjected to further microbiological tests. Gross microscopic lesions...
Klebsiella pneumoniae is considered one of the most important Gram-negative opportunistic pathogens. The contact between humans and birds poses health risks to both. aim this study was investigate resistance virulence K. isolates from psittacines passerines, seized illegal trade in Brazil. We analysed 32 strains isolated orders Psittaciformes Passeriformes by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for factor genes. Antibiotic assessed disk diffusion assay PCR. results indicated that fimH (100%),...
Psittacine birds are commonly kept as companion and the maintenance of these in captivity may represent a zoonotic risk contribute to propagation multidrug-resistant β-lactamase extended-spectrum (ESBLs)-producing pathogens. This study aimed identify characterize strains Klebsiella pneumoniae complex isolated from diseased psittacine birds, determining virulence resistance profiles. K. were 16 (16/46). All carried more than three genes, with high frequency fimH kpn (93.75%), uge (87.52%),...
Anualmente o tráfico de animais silvestres retira milhões aves da natureza. Os cardeais (Paroaria coronata) e cardeais-do-nordeste dominicana) estão incluídos entre as espécies mais traficadas. A microbiota cloacal passeriformes vida livre é composta principalmente por bacilos cocos gram-positivos, já os gram-negativos predominam em cativeiro. Em situações estresse baixa imunidade bactérias gram-negativas podem causar infecções oportunistas. O presente trabalho identificou cloaca 49...
Abstract This report describes an outbreak of suppurative peritonitis caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae in adult female captive golden‐handed tamarin ( Saguinus midas ). Two virulent and multidrug‐resistant strains were isolated classified through MLST as ST 60 1263. The microbiological diagnosis works a support tool for preventive measures.
No Estado de São Paulo, Brasil, os pássaros como canários-da-terra têm sido uma das espécies mais frequentemente resgatadas do tráfico illegal e enviadas aos centros vida selvagem. Em situações estresse estas aves podem ser acometidas por infecções causadas bactérias oportunistas. Este fato é grande importância quando planejada da reintrodução na natureza. O presente trabalho foi delineado para avaliar o estado saúde resgatados ilegal. Foram colhidas soabes traqueia cloaca 100 durante anos...
ABSTRACT: Enterococcus are recognized worldwide as significant nosocomial agents that have been continuously envolving to adapt different niches and acquire resistance several antibiotic classes. Vancomycin gentamicin-resistant strains of E. faecalis faecium associated with human infections. Some epidemiological studies suggest the participation pets reservoirs vancomycin strains. However, role companion birds these has poorly studied. In this study, 126 psittacine were evaluated 26.9%...
Abstract Microbiological studies of the sanitary and health status psittacine birds that will be reintroduced is important in evaluating whether these animals act as carriers pathogenic agents to other humans. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) a faster more accurate method identify bacteria than conventional microbiology methods. The aim this study was evaluate psittacines housed captivity, by assessment Gram-negative from fecal...
Avian bornaviruses (ABVs) are the causative agents of proventricular dilatation disease (PDD), a fatal neurologic considered to be major threat psittacine bird populations. We performed reverse transcription PCR survey detect presence canary avian bornavirus (CnBV) in birds order Passeriformes related different clinical manifestations, such as sudden death, signs, apathy, anorexia, excessive beak growth, and PDD. A total 227 samples from captive wild canaries were included, which 80 birds,...
The Proventricular Dilatation Disease (PDD) or Syndrome (PDS) is a worldwidely distributed infectious disease of viral origin that can be found in birds all ages, especially adult psittacines. There evidence the causative agent avian Bornavirus (ABV), member Bornaviridae family. Clinical signs vary and may predominantly neurological, gastrointestinal, combination thereof. Although disputed, diagnosis based on clinical, macroscopic microscopic findings, as well radiographic studies more...
