“Brachyspira hampsonii” clade I isolated from Belgian pigs imported to Germany

Veterinary Microbiology, 2014
This report describes the detection of "Brachyspira (B.) hampsonii" clade I in Belgian pigs imported to Germany. Two of seventeen pigs from one herd were reported positive for Brachyspira hyodysenteriae by culture in a Belgian diagnostic laboratory, but negative for this Brachyspira species by specific PCR.

Retrospective detection ofBrachyspira hampsoniiin archived colitis cases from western Canadian swine

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, 2018
Mucohaemorrhagic diarrhea associated with Brachyspira hampsonii infection has emerged as a production-limiting disease in western Canada. This pathogen was first described in North America in 2010, and reports of its detection occurred concurrently in western Canada and the United States.

Characterization of Heterologously Expressed Putative Cytolysins from “ Brachyspira hampsonii “

The FASEB Journal, 2016
Cytolysins produced by Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and “ Brachyspira hampsonii” strain 30446 are believed to be important virulence factors in the pathology of swine dysentery.

Isolation and Characterization of Brachyspira spp. Including “Brachyspira hampsonii” from Lesser Snow Geese (Chen caerulescens caerulescens) in the Canadian Arctic

Microbial Ecology, 2013
Brachyspira is associated with diarrhea and colitis in pigs, and control of these pathogens is complicated by their complex ecology. Identification of wildlife reservoirs of Brachyspira requires the discrimination of colonized animals and those simply contaminated through environmental exposure.

First screening for Brachyspira hampsonii in Swiss pigs applying a new high resolution melting assay

Veterinary Microbiology, 2016
A new High Resolution Melting (HRM) assay was developed for the rapid detection of Brachyspira (B.) hampsonii. B. hampsonii occurs in different European countries, however, until today it has not been encountered in Switzerland. Four B. hampsonii reference strains were used to develop the HRM assay: B.

First molecular detection of Brachyspira hampsonii on pig farms in Poland

Acta Veterinaria Hungarica
AbstractNowadays, the three strongly beta-haemolytic spirochaetes, Brachyspira hyodysenteriae, Brachyspira suanatina and Brachyspira hampsonii are thought to be causative agents of swine dysentery, an economically devastating disease of grow-finish pigs characterised by severe mucohaemorrhagic diarrhoea. B.

Cessation of clinical disease and spirochete shedding after tiamulin treatment in pigs experimentally infected with “Brachyspira hampsonii”

Research in Veterinary Science, 2014
With the emergence of "Brachyspira hampsonii" associated with swine dysentery in North America, identification of effective treatments and interventions is a pressing need. Denagard® (tiamulin hydrogen fumarate) Liquid Concentrate 12.5% is approved in the United States for treatment of dysentery caused by Brachyspira hyodysenteriae at 0.006% in the ...

Experimental infection of conventional pigs with a ‘Brachyspira hampsonii’ isolate recovered from a migrating waterfowl in Spain

The Veterinary Journal, 2016
'Brachyspira hampsonii' is a recently proposed new species within the Brachyspira genus, which produces a dysentery-like disease in pigs. This study aims at investigating whether a 'B. hampsonii' isolate recovered from a migrating waterfowl was capable of colonizing pig intestines, inducing clinical signs of dysentery and being transmitted among pigs ...

Comparison of Lesion Severity, Distribution, and Colonic Mucin Expression in Pigs With Acute Swine Dysentery Following Oral Inoculation With “Brachyspira hampsonii” orBrachyspira hyodysenteriae

Veterinary Pathology, 2014
Swine dysentery is classically associated with infection by Brachyspira hyodysenteriae, the only current officially recognized Brachyspira sp. that consistently imparts strong beta-hemolysis on blood agar. Recently, several strongly beta-hemolytic Brachyspira have been isolated from swine with clinical dysentery that are not identified as B ...

Characterization of the Electrogenic Secretory Response in the Porcine Colon following in vivo Challenge with Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and “ Brachyspira hampsonii”

The FASEB Journal, 2016
The effects of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and “ Brachyspira hampsonii” infections on the agonist induced electrogenic secretion were assessed to determine their contribution to the pathophysiology of swine dysentery.
