Antimicrobial resistance profile of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae and Actinobacillus porcitonsillarum

open access: yesVeterinary Microbiology, 2007
A total of 83 Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae and 58 Actinobacillus porcitonsillarum strains collected from slaughtered pigs in Switzerland were screened for susceptibility to 20 antimicrobial agents by MIC determinations. Resistance to sulfamethoxazole, the combination sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim, tiamulin, tilmicosin, tetracycline, penicillin and ...

Endothelial cytotoxicity of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae

Research in Veterinary Science, 1991
The cytotoxicity of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae serotype 1 strain CM5 for porcine and bovine endothelial cells in vitro, was dose-dependent. This strain and its attenuated and avirulent substrain CM5A were equally cytotoxic. The cytotoxicity observed during five hours of exposure of endothelial cells to bacterial products was abolished if the ...

Biochemical typing of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae

Veterinary Microbiology, 1991
A study was conducted to evaluate the possibility of using biochemical differences among strains of a given serotype of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae as epidemiological markers, to rapidly identify the source of infection in herds affected with swine pleuropneumonia.

Attenuation of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae by inactivation of aroQ

Veterinary Microbiology, 2002
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae is the aetiological agent of porcine pleuropneumonia, a disease resulting in morbidity and mortality of pigs and accordingly economic losses within the swine industry. In order to construct a potential vaccine strain of A. pleuropneumoniae for control of this disease, the aroQ gene, required for the aromatic biosynthetic

Survival of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae outside the pig

Research in Veterinary Science, 2013
Transmission of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae is primarily thought to be via direct transfer of mucus from pig to pig. For transfer between farms, the organism may need to persist in the wet or dried state to be carried on an inanimate surface. The survival of A. pleuropneumoniae was investigated under controlled laboratory conditions.

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 ...

A targeted mutagenesis system for Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae

Gene, 1995
We describe methods for the mutagenesis of cloned Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (Ap) genes and for the construction of Ap mutants by allelic exchange. We used these methods to construct isogenic mutants of Ap which no longer synthesized a 48-kDa outer membrane protein (AopA).

Hemagglutinating properties of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1988
A total of 26 isolates of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae were tested for their ability to agglutinate erythrocytes of different origins. Seven different hemagglutination patterns were found. Ten (38%) isolates did not agglutinate any of the erythrocytes tested.
