Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common cause of otitis externa in dogs, and treatment these infections becoming problematic because the increasing number multiresistant strains. The aim present study was to compare vitro activities cefepime, ceftazidime, enrofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, gentamicin ticarcillin/clavulanic acid against 104 strains P isolated from dogs with externa. Antimicrobial susceptibility minimum inhibitory concentrations, µg/ml, were evaluated by E test (bioMérieux). most active...
ABSTRACT T rypanosoma ( M egatrypanum ) melophagium is a parasite of sheep transmitted by keds, the sheep‐restricted ectoparasite elophagus ovinus D iptera: H ippoboscidae). Sheep keds were 100% prevalent in from five organic farms C roatia, S outheastern E urope, whereas trypanosomes morphologically compatible with . 86% guts keds. Multilocus phylogenetic analyses using sequences small subunit rRNA , glycosomal glyceraldehyde‐3‐phosphate dehydrogenase, spliced leader, and internal...
The genetic analysis of high-level mupirocin resistance (Hi-Mup(r)) in a Staphylococcus pseudintermedius isolate from dog is presented. Hi-Mup(r) ileS2 gene flanked by novel rearrangement directly repeated insertion sequence IS257 elements was located, together with the aminoglycoside aacA-aphD determinant, on conjugative plasmid related to pSK41/pGO1 family plasmids.
The impact of the long-term historical contamination Mrežnica River with textile industry wastewaters on metal/metalloid bioaccumulation in muscles young northern pike (Esox lucius) (0+ to 3+) was evaluated, as well association bioaccumulated concentrations muscle fish physiology. Increased levels several elements (As, Bi, Cs, Co, Cu, Zn), muscle, were occasionally found front former factory, but obtained general either comparable or even lower than from moderately contaminated freshwaters....
Pseudomonas aeruginosa has been determined to be the distinct cause of a number different infections in both humans and animals.Apart from its high intrinsic resistance, which makes it difficult treat, also great capacity acquire further resistance mechanisms.These mechanisms can present simultaneously one cell, conferring multiresistant phenotype.Taking into account that known risk factor for selection resistant strains is excessive inappropriate drug use, especially fluoroquinolones, aim...
All data analysed during this study are included in published article.
Mastitis, an inflammation of the mammary gland, is most widespread health problem dairy cows, goats and sheep. Its prevention treatment contribute to significant financial loss milk producers. New research shows that total due clinical mastitis in cows estimated between 110 550 litres per lactation, depending on individual cow. The costs include unusable milk, medications veterinary care costs, extra labour premature culling. Depending form treatments cost 50 150 US animal. Antibiotic...
Metacercariae of the digenetic trematode Clinostomum complanatum Rudolphi, 1814 were observed in chub (Squalius cephalus) and common carp (Cyprinus carpio) from Orljava River (Croatia). Both prevalence infection intensity higher (prevalence 23.4%, average 70.5) than (5.9%, 4.5). In general, metacercariae located wall anterior part digestive tract branchial cavity, supraocular region, hypaxial musculature near paired fins. Histology revealed obvious affinity parasite for striated muscles...
Although Aspidogaster conchicola is a common and widespread parasite of freshwater molluscs, knowledge about its distribution hosts in Croatia still insufficient. The aim our research was to investigate the presence A. mussel Unio pictorum, which widely distributed rivers Europe. study conducted Mrežnica River, where U. pictorum species. Five specimens were collected by scuba diving October 2021. dissection mussels carried out laboratory, all tissues inspected under stereo microscope....
A three-year-old male western black-tailed rattlesnake (Crotalus molossus molossus), which was refusing food and losing weight presented with a swelling on the right side of head below eye. An abscess suspected treatment subcutaneous enrofloxacin started immediately. After identification causative agents as Pseudomonas aeruginosa Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, following susceptibility testing, replaced marbofloxacin, intralesional gentamicin/betamethasone gentamicin administered...
