First Case ofBartonella quintanaEndocarditis in Korea

Journal of Korean Medical Science, 2012
Since microbial gene sequencing was utilized for etiologic diagnosis of culture-negative endocarditis, cases of Bartonella endocarditis have been reported in various countries. Herein we report the first case of Bartonella quintana endocarditis, which was confirmed for the first time in Korea by 16S rRNA gene sequencing from the excised valve.

Bartonella quintana detection in Demodex from erythematotelangiectatic rosacea patients

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2014
We report here the presence of Bartonella quintana in a demodex. Demodex are arthropods associated with acnea. Bartonella quintana was found by broad Spectrum 16rDNA PCR amplification and sequencing, and confirmed by specific PCR. Bartonella quintana may

Bartonella spp. Infections Identified by Molecular Methods, United States

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2023
Molecular methods can enable rapid identification of Bartonella spp. infections, which are difficult to diagnose by using culture or serology. We analyzed clinical test results of PCR that targeted bacterial 16S rRNA hypervariable V1–V2 regions only or ...

A circumpolar parasite: Evidence of a cryptic undescribed species of sucking louse, Linognathus sp., collected from Arctic foxes, Vulpes lagopus, in Nunavut (Canada) and Svalbard (Norway)

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 37, Issue 4, Page 656-664, December 2023., 2023
Since 2019, Arctic foxes from Canada and Svalbard have been observed with fur loss inconsistent with natural shedding of fur. Adult lice were collected from Arctic foxes with fur loss and conventional PCR targeting the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 gene (cox1) revealed that fox lice from Canada and Svalbard were 100% similar, but were ...

Species diversity and detection of pathogens in phlebotomine sand flies collected from forest management areas of Quintana Roo, Mexico

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 37, Issue 4, Page 845-858, December 2023., 2023
We compared sand fly communities of a forest reserve with those of forest management areas in Mexico to determine their species diversity (α and β) and determined peaks of activity. During the windy and dry season, the abundance of anthropophilic sand fly species is negatively correlated with the temperature and positively correlated with relative ...
