Reclassification of Serpulina intermedia and Serpulina murdochii in the genus Brachyspira as Brachyspira intermedia comb. nov. and Brachyspira murdochii comb. nov. [PDF]
A reassessment was undertaken of published characteristics of the five species of anaerobic intestinal spirochaetes in the genus Brachyspira (Brachyspira aalborgi, Brachyspira alvinipulli, Brachyspira hyodysenteriae, Brachyspira innocens and Brachyspira pilosicoli) and the two species in the genus Serpulina (Serpulina intermedia and Serpulina murdochii)

Role of sialic acid in brachyspira hyodysenteriae adhesion to pig colonic mucins [PDF]
Infection with Brachyspira hyodysenteriae results in mucoid hemorrhagic diarrhea. This pathogen is associated with the colonic mucus layer, mainly composed of mucins. Infection regulates mucin O-glycosylation in the colon and increases mucin secretion as

A survey on the occurrence of Brachyspira pilosicoli and Brachyspira hyodysenteriae in growing-finishing pigs [PDF]
Background: The major pathogenic intestinal spirochetes affecting pigs during the growing- finishing stage of production includeBrachyspira hyodysenteriaeandBrachyspira pilosicoli. The aim of this study was to assess the current occurrence ofB. hyodysenteriaeandB. pilosicoliin Polish pig herds. Moreover, associations between the presence of diarrhea or

Identification of Brachyspira pilosicoli, Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and Brachyspira intermedia in commercial laying hens and commercial broiler breeders using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in paraffin-embedded tissues [PDF]
: Bacteria of the genus Brachyspira can cause enteric diseases in birds; thus, this study evaluated the efficacy of the fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) technique for the identification of B. pilosicoli, B. hyodysenteriae and B. intermedia using

Porcine intestinal glycosphingolipids recognized by Brachyspira hyodysenteriae
Swine dysentery caused by Brachyspira hyodysenteriae is a disease present worldwide with an important economic impact on the farming business, resulting in an increased use of antibiotics. In the present study, we investigated the binding of B. hyodysenteriae to glycosphingolipids from porcine small intestinal epithelium in order to determine the ...

Intestinal spirochaetes of the genus Brachyspira share a partially conserved 26 kilobase genomic region with Enterococcus faecalis and Escherichia coli [PDF]
Anaerobic intestinal spirochaetes of the genus Brachyspira include both pathogenic and commensal species. The two best-studied members are the pathogenic species B. hyodysenteriae (the aetiological agent of swine dysentery) and B.
