Human intestinal spirochetosis:Brachyspira aalborgiand/orBrachyspira pilosicoli? [PDF]
Animal Health Research Reviews, 2001 AbstractIntestinal spirochetosis in humans (HIS) is a condition defined by the presence of a layer of spirochetes attached by one cell end to the colorectal epithelium. The pathologic significance of HIS is uncertain, but it has been linked to chronic diarrhea and other abdominal complaints.

Brachyspira pilosicoli-induced avian intestinal spirochaetosis [PDF]
Microbial Ecology in Health & Disease, 2015 Avian intestinal spirochaetosis (AIS) is a common disease occurring in poultry that can be caused by Brachyspira pilosicoli, a Gram-negative bacterium of the order Spirochaetes. During AIS, this opportunistic pathogen colonises the lower gastrointestinal (GI) tract of poultry (principally, the ileum, caeca, and colon), which can cause symptoms such as ...
