Coinfection with Bartonella clarridgeiae and Bartonella henselae and with different Bartonella henselae strains in domestic cats [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1997
Bartonella clarridgeiae and several strains of Bartonella henselae, the agent of cat scratch disease, with variations in the 16S rRNA gene have been found to infect the blood of cats. An epidemiologic study of Bartonella infection in domestic French cats revealed that of 436 cats sampled, 5 cats (1.1%) were coinfected with B.

Host-Pathogen-Vector Continuum in a Changing Landscape: Potential Transmission Pathways for <i>Bartonella</i> in a Small Mammal Community. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This study focuses on Bartonella spp. (a Gram‐negative bacteria) in small mammals and their ectoparasites within a rainforest human‐use landscape. We found that a high proportion (40.56%) of the tested small mammals across five species and two sites carry Bartonella, with prevalence being positively correlated with aggregated ectoparasite load. Despite

Genetic diversity of Bartonella spp. in rodents and fleas from Poland [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Bartonella spp. are parasites of mammalian erythrocytes and endothelial cells, and are transmitted by blood-feeding arthropod ectoparasites, including fleas.

Comparative study on Bartonella infection in spleen and kidney of small mammals from Mile City and Lianghe County, Yunnan Province [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
BackgroundBartonellosis is a zoonotic infectious disease caused by Bartonella spp. Small mammals are the most important hosts of Bartonella and play an important role in its long-term maintenance and spread.

Investigation of natural infection of BALB C mice by Bartonella henselae [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases
Specific Pathogen-Free (SPF) animals are bred and maintained to exclude pathogens associated with significant morbidity or mortality, which may pose a risk to research replicability.

Comparative Community Ecology Reveals Conserved Ectoparasite Microbiomes Amidst Variable Host and Environment Microbiomes. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Our results indicate that ectoparasite microbiomes are highly conserved and specific. In contrast, we found high geographic variation in host and environmental microbiomes, suggesting that there may be a constraint on blood‐feeding insect ectoparasites to maintain a specific microbiome.

First report of three novel Bartonella species isolated in rodents and shrews from nine provinces of Thailand [PDF]

Veterinary World, 2022
Background and Aim: Bartonella spp. are Gram-negative zoonotic bacteria that are transmitted to humans by several types of animal hosts, including rodents. Several studies have been conducted on the prevalence of Bartonella infections in rodents. However,

Phylogeography of Human and Animal Coxiella burnetii Strains: Genetic Fingerprinting of Q Fever in Belgium

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Q fever is a zoonotic disease caused by the bacteria Coxiella burnetii. Domestic ruminants are the primary source for human infection, and the identification of likely contamination routes from the reservoir animals the critical point to implement ...
