A multi-state outbreak of Salmonella enterica serovar Saintpaul infection occurred in Australia during October 2006. case-control study conducted three affected jurisdictions, New South Wales, Victoria and Australian Capital Territory, included 36 cases with the outbreak-specific strain S. identified by multiple locus variable-number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) a faecal specimen 106 controls. Consumption cantaloupe (rockmelon) was strongly associated illness (adjusted OR 23.9 95%, 95% CI...
During May 2015, an increase in Salmonella Agona cases was reported from western Sydney, Australia. We examine the public health actions used to investigate and control this increase. A descriptive case-series investigation conducted. Six outbreak were identified; all had consumed cooked tuna sushi rolls purchased within a Sydney shopping complex. Onset of illness for occurred between 7 April 24 2015. isolated food samples collected implicated premise prohibition order issued. No further...
A series of specimens with some differences in wing patterns and male genitalia from different localities is recognized as Halpe paupera Devyatkin, 2002 by comparing the COI gene sequences. The morphological variability discussed illustrated. intraspecific variation female H. walthewi type locality elucidated, hence this subspecies considered a synonym paupera. distribution map bionomic information species are provided.
We found Albiphasma heringi (Mell, 1922) and A. pieridoides (Liu & Gu, 1994) to be conspecific by the 658 bp COI gene sequences male genitalia characters. Considering distinguishable wing patterns allopatric distribution of two taxa, we treat as a subspecies heringi. Therefore, genus Huang, Chiba, Wang Fan, 2016, which was established for pieridoides, becomes monotypic, in light morphological similarities close genetic distance between Pintara bowringi (Joicey Talbot, 1921), propose its...
Abstract The city of Sydney, Australia, experienced a persistent outbreak Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1 (Lp1) pneumonia in 2016. To elucidate the source and bring to close we examined genomes clinical environmental Lp1 isolates recovered over 7 weeks. A total 48 from patients cooling towers were sequenced compared using SNP-based, core-genome MLST pangenome approaches. All three methods confirmed phylogenetic relatedness between associated with outbreaks Central Business District (March...
