Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans Infection

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1989
There are no medical restrictions placed upon admission, which, therefore, is unselected, being based solely upon the severity of the illness as judged by the admitting physician. We certainly agree with the assertion of Guerin et al. that the incidence of underlying disease and sources for the bacteremia and the mortality are likely to vary with the ...

Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans infection in the oral cavity

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1981
An abscess that developed following the extraction of periodontally involved teeth persisted after surgical drainage and ampicillin therapy. Subsequent culture of pus from this abscess gave a pure growth of Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans which was resistant to ampicillin. Surgical drainage and the use of appropriate antibiotic therapy cleared the

Detection of naturally aerosolized Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae on pig farms by cyclonic air sampling and qPCR.

Veterinary Microbiology, 2020
Respiratory infections caused by Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae have a large impact on commercial pig farms globally. As current vaccines have limited efficacy, animal care and air hygiene are critical for disease control.

Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae: pathobiology and pathogenesis of infection

Microbes and Infection, 2002
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae causes porcine pleuropneumonia, a highly contagious disease for which there is no effective vaccine. This review considers how adhesins, iron-acquisition factors, capsule and lipopolysaccharide, RTX cytotoxins and other potential future vaccine components contribute to colonisation, to avoidance of host clearance ...
