Bats and their ectoparasites (Nycteribiidae and Spinturnicidae) carry diverse novel Bartonella genotypes, China

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, 2021
Bartonella species are facultative intracellular bacteria and recognized worldwide as emerging zoonotic pathogens. Bartonella were isolated or identified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in bats and their ectoparasites worldwide, whereas the ...

Prevalence of Bartonella henselae and Bartonella clarridgeiae in stray cats [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 1997
The aim of the present work was to determine by blood culture the prevalence of blood infection with Bartonella species in a well-defined, European, urban stray cat population. Therefore, 94 stray cats were trapped from 10 cat colonies. Blood samples of these cats were cultured on both blood agar and liquid medium in order to raise the likelihood of ...

Laboratory Diagnosis of 37 Cases of Bartonella Endocarditis Based on Enzyme Immunoassay and Real-Time PCR

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 2021
Bartonella spp., mostly Bartonella quintana and B. henselae, are a common cause of culture-negative endocarditis. Serology using immunofluorescence assay (IFA) and PCR performed on cardiac tissues are the mainstays of diagnosis. ABSTRACT Bartonella spp.,

Hedgehogs and Squirrels as Hosts of Zoonotic Bartonella Species

open access: yesPathogens, 2021
Free-living animals frequently play a key role in the circulation of various zoonotic vector-borne pathogens. Bacteria of the genus Bartonella are transmitted by blood-feeding arthropods and infect a large range of mammals.
