Discriminating Escherichia albertii from other Enterobacteriaceae is difficult. Systematic analyses showed that E. represents a substantial portion of strains currently identified as eae-positive coli and includes Shiga toxin 2f-producing strains. Because possesses the eae gene, many might have been misidentified enterohemorrhagic or enteropathogenic coli.

Staphylococcus aureus infection is a common cause of mastitis, reducing milk yield, affecting animal welfare and causing huge economic losses within the dairy industry. In addition to problem acquired drug resistance, bacterial invasion into udder cells formation surface biofilms are believed reduce antibiotic efficacy, leading treatment failure. Here, we investigated antimicrobial activities enrofloxacin, an that commonly used in mastitis therapy polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB), polymer....
Abstract Accelerated low water corrosion is a form of marine steel caused by bacterial activity. It has global spread and potentially responsible for billions pounds damage. We have determined in detail both the chemistry products associated microbiology at UK site. The layered structure with iron sulfides surface oxides sulfates contact water. are formed reaction hydrogen sulfide sulfate-reducing bacteria oxidised through series sulfur oxidation states sulfide-oxidising bacteria, forming...
The aim of this study was to explore the presence methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius (MRSP) in a collection S. strains isolated from dogs and cats with dermatitis Japan compare their genotypic phenotypic characteristics. Clonal relationships were determined by pulse field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), staphylococcal chromosomal cassette mec (SCCmec) typing, multilocus sequence typing (MLST). Biofilm formation assay performed using safranin staining microplates. Three...
The aim of this study was to investigate the presence enteropathogenic (EPEC), enterohaemorragic (EHEC) and verotoxigenic (VTEC) Escherichia coli strains in free-ranging wild ruminants Belgium characterize positive isolates (serogroups virulence-associated factor-encoding genes). isolated from faeces cervids were characterized by PCR targeting genes coding for main virulence properties EPEC, EHEC VTEC strains. prevalence rate these pathogenic faecal samples obtained found be 15%. No isolate...
Vaccines used in control programmes of Bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1) utilize highly attenuated BoHV-1 strains marked by a deletion the glycoprotein E (gE) gene. Since recombinants are obtained at high frequency experimentally coinfected cattle, consequences recombination on virulence gE-negative were investigated. Thus, generated vitro from several virulent and one mutant deleted gC gE genes. Four tested natural host. All more than vaccine gC- parental BoHV-1. The recombinant isolated field...
Enterohaemorrhagic and enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EHEC EPEC) inject a repertoire of effector proteins into host cells via type III secretion system (T3SS) encoded by the locus enterocyte effacement (LEE). OspG is an protein initially identified in Shigella that was shown to inhibit innate immune response. In this study, we found ospG homologues EHEC (mainly serogroup O111) Yersinia enterocolitica. The T3SS LEE able these different cells. Infection HeLa with O111 inhibited...
ABSTRACT Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) strains are responsible for food poisoning in developed countries via consumption of vegetal and animal sources contaminated by ruminant feces, some (O26, O111, O118 serogroups) also diarrhea young calves. The prevalence 27 putative adhesins EHEC bovine necrotoxigenic E. (NTEC) was studied with a collection 43 29 human enteropathogenic (EPEC) 5 non-EPEC/non-EHEC (1 4 human) O26 strains, using specific PCRs. Four “groups” exist, including...
Anaplasma phagocytophilum is a tick-borne pathogen of veterinary and human importance. Both ticks as vectors vertebrates reservoir hosts are essential for the cycle maintenance this bacterium. Currently, whole range animal species reservoirs A. in natural environment still unknown. Therefore, aim study was to estimate prevalence infection with wild boar population southern Belgium. In frame targeted surveillance program, 513 boars were sampled during hunting season 2011. A nested 16S rRNA...
Though the government of Niger opted in 1975 for a policy improving dairy capability Azawak zebu cows, national level production satisfies only 50% population needs. Several reasons may explain this shortage, including prevalence mastitis. The purpose research was (i) to study mastitis at Sahelian experimental station Toukounous; (ii) identify bacterial species responsible; and (iii) type Staphylococcus (S. ) aureus isolates. Two hundred sixty-five cows were tested using California Mastitis...
Little attention has been devoted to whether the impact factor (IF) can be considered a responsible metric in light of bibliodiversity.This article critically engages with this question measuring following variables IF journals included 2021 Journal Citation Reports™ and examining their distribution: publishing models (hybrid, open access (OA) or without fees, subscription), world regions, language(s) publication, subject categories, publishers prices processing charges (APCs) if any.Our...
Abstract Background Enteropathogenic (EPEC) and enterohaemorrhagic (EHEC) Escherichia coli are responsible for food poisoning (enteritis enterotoxaemia) in humans developed countries. Cattle considered to be an important reservoir of EHEC EPEC strains humans. Moreover, some the strains, belonging O26, O111, O118 serogroups, example, also digestive disorders calves. The Translocated intimin receptor (Tir), (Eae) Tir-cytoskeleton coupling protein (TccP) represent three virulence factors...

The present study was conducted at the Sahelian Experimental Station in Toukounous Niger, on three herds of Azawak zebu breed order to evaluate antimicrobial susceptibility a total 43 Staphylococcus aureus isolated from 164 milk samples cows with subclinical mastitis 2010 2012. highest frequency resistance observed for β-lactam family: penicillin (46%) followed by oxacillin (12%). Twenty isolates were sensitive all tested antibiotics, 12 resistant one them and 11 multi-resistant (2 5...
