Bartonella henselaeand Domestic Cats, Jamaica

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005
To the Editor: Bartonella henselae has been isolated from domestic cats in most countries where it has been investigated (1), with the exception of some countries at northern latitudes, such as Norway (2). The prevalence of both bacteremia and seropositivity in cats is usually highest in warm and humid tropical countries.

Functional characterization of "Bartonella" effector protein - BepE during "in vivo" and "in vitro" infection [PDF]

, 2013
The bartonellae is a family of gram-negative, fastidious, facultative intracellular, zoonotic bacteria. Most of the Bartonella species are highly adapted to establish asymptomatic bacteremia of their reservoir host within which the bacteria colonize ...

Bartonella Spp. in Pets and Effect on Human Health

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2006
Among the many mammals infected with Bartonella spp., pets represent a large reservoir for human infection because most Bartonella spp. infecting them are zoonotic. Cats are the main reservoir for Bartonella henselae, B. clarridgeiae, and B.

Possible Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated With Streptococcal Infections (PANDAS) Presenting in Late Adolescence and Early Adulthood: A Case Series

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2026.
ABSTRACT PANDAS‐like syndromes may rarely occur beyond childhood. Although these patients may meet criteria for PANS, recognizing a possible streptococcal‐triggered subgroup remains important for diagnosis, future biomarker discovery, and refinement of disease classification.

Diagnosis and Management of Infectious Encephalitis in Adults: Guidelines From the European Academy of Neurology and European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases

European Journal of Neurology, Volume 33, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Encephalitis is difficult to diagnose and manage, posing a challenge to clinicians. Since the last European guidelines were published in 2010, novel causes have emerged, diagnostic processes have evolved and treatments assessed which need to be reflected in updated guidelines.

Susceptibility of Polish Bartonella henselae Strains

Polish Journal of Microbiology, 2012
Due to the fastidious nature of B. henselae and the limited number of available isolates worldwide, there are few data on its in vitro susceptibility to antibiotics. We determined the minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of ten antimicrobial agents against 11 feline isolates of B. henselae by Etest method.

A nested-PCR with an Internal Amplification Control for the detection and differentiation of Bartonella henselae and B. clarridgeiae: An examination of cats in Trinidad

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2005
Background Bartonella species are bacterial blood parasites of animals capable of causing disease in both animals and man. Cat-Scratch Disease (CSD) in humans is caused mainly by Bartonella henselae and is acquired from the cat, which serves as a ...

Validating Wing Biopsies for Blood‐Borne Pathogen Characterization in Bats

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 19, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Wildlife surveillance is critical for tracking disease emergence, characterizing pathogen diversity, and assessing spillover risks. Blood‐borne pathogens are of particular interest for such efforts due to their global distribution, broad host taxa, and zoonotic potential.
