The aim of this study was to determine the phenotypic and genotypic resistance profiles methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius (MRSP) examine clonal distribution in Europe North America. A total 103 MRSP isolates from dogs isolated several countries Europe, USA Canada were characterized. Isolates identified by PCR–restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP), antimicrobial susceptibility determined broth dilution or gradient diffusion, genes detected using a microarray....

ABSTRACT Vancomycin-resistant enterococcci (VRE) in Europe are thought to have emerged partly due the use of glycopeptide avoparcin animal husbandry. We compared occurrence VRE geographical regions which until 1997 large amounts were used (Spain, United Kingdom, and Denmark) with Sweden, where was banned 1986. also studied relatedness between strains from different habitats. In total, 2,580 samples collected humans, animals, environment (soil, sewage, recipient water). resistant 20 μg/ml...

Extended-spectrum cephalosporin-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (ESCRE) are an increasing healthcare problem in both human and veterinary medicine. The spread of ESCRE is complex with multiple reservoirs different transmission routes. aim this study was to investigate if carriage dogs more prevalent households a known carrier, compared where humans be negative for ESCRE. Identical strains the same household would suggest possible between dogs.Twenty-two dog owners positive rectal culture each...

ABSTRACT Enterococci from pigs in Denmark, Spain, and Sweden were examined for susceptibility to antimicrobial agents copper the presence of selected resistance genes. The greatest levels found among isolates Spain Denmark compared those Sweden, which corresponds amounts used food animal production countries. Similar genes encode different countries, but tet (L) (S) more frequently Spain. A recently identified transferable gene was all copper-resistant

Anthrax is a bacterial disease primarily affecting grazing animals but it can also cause severe in humans. We have used genomic epidemiology to study microevolution of the bacterium confined outbreak cattle which involved emergence an antibiotic-resistant phenotype. At time death, contained heterogeneous population Single Nucleotide Variants (SNVs), some being clonal most subclonal. found that independent isolates from same carcass had similar levels SNV differences as different animals....

Microimmunofluorescence methods used for detection of immunoglobulin G and M antibodies to Chlamydia trachomatis are not available many clinical laboratories. We evaluated a simple enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in which serotype L2 elementary bodies as antigen. The proved satisfactory the serum IgG. A total 160 human sera were tested, results correlated well with those obtained by microimmunofluorescence. Results IgM antibody successful, correlation current was poor.

The effects of two dinitroanilines, oryzalin and trifluralin, were compared against Cryptosporidium parvum, in vitro using HCT-8 cells vivo neonatal Swiss ARC mice Wistar rats. In vitro, trifluralin exhibited IC50 values (concentration necessary to cause a 50% inhibition) 750 800 nM, respectively. A viability assay showed that neither compound produced cytotoxic effect on the host at concentrations as high 1 µM. component this study consisted inoculation rats with 105 viable oocysts C....
