Colonisation of pet shop puppies with Brachyspira pilosicoli

Veterinary Microbiology, 2003
Anaerobic intestinal spirochaetes of the genus Brachyspira are known to colonise dogs, but relatively little is known about their prevalence, distribution or pathogenic potential. One species, Brachyspira pilosicoli, is thought to cause diarrhoea in dogs, as well as in other animals and humans.

d-ribose utilisation differentiates porcine Brachyspira pilosicoli from other porcine Brachyspira species

Anaerobe, 2006
D-ribose utilisation was studied in 60 Brachyspira pilosicoli strains and 35 strains of other Brachyspira species, the majority of which were of porcine origin. Utilisation of D-ribose was demonstrated indirectly by measuring the reduction in pH of densely inoculated tryptone-peptone broth supplemented with 7% foetal calf serum and 1% D-ribose. Among B.

Brachyspira (Serpulina) pilosicoli Spirochetemia in an Immunocompromised Patient

Infection, 2002
The case of an elderly immunocompromised man with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma who presented with fever, abdominal pain and bloody diarrhea is described. Brachyspira pilosicoli was isolated from culture. The patient was treated with penicillin G i.v. and became afebrile. B.

Cecal Spirochetosis Caused by Brachyspira pilosicoli in Commercial Turkeys

Avian Diseases, 2005
Spirochetes that were identified as Brachyspira pilosicoli were present in the ceca of 7.5- to 18-wk-old turkeys with cecal spirochetosis and typhlitis. The identity of B. pilosicoli was confirmed on the basis of ultrastructural morphology of the cecal epithelium adherent microbes, immunohistochemical staining with a Brachyspira genus-specific ...

Extensive intestinal spirochaetosis in pigs challenged with Brachyspira pilosicoli

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2004
A field isolate of Brachyspira pilosicoli, the aetiological agent of porcine intestinal spirochaetosis, was inoculated by stomach tube into six 6-week-old pigs. All animals developed loose to watery faeces and were killed successively on days 8, 14 or 17 post-inoculation (day 17 being the end of the study).

Epidemiological studies of Brachyspira pilosicoli in two Australian piggeries

Veterinary Microbiology, 2003
The epidemiology of infection with the intestinal spirochaete Brachyspira pilosicoli within pig herds is incompletely understood. To investigate this further, cross-sectional and cohort studies were undertaken on two piggeries. Faeces were subjected to selective culture, and DNA was extracted from growth on the primary media and amplified by polymerase

Immunomagnetic separation of the intestinal spirochaetes Brachyspira pilosicoli and Brachyspira hyodysenteriae from porcine faeces

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2004
Porcine intestinal spirochaetes are fastidious anaerobic organisms and, as a consequence, it has been necessary to develop various protocols to enhance their isolation from or detection in faeces. Immunomagnetic separation (IMS) is a method developed recently to improve separation of target cells from mixed cell suspensions.

Survival of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and B. pilosicoli in terrestrial microcosms

Veterinary Microbiology, 2001
The survival of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and Brachyspira pilosicoli was investigated at 10 degrees C in laboratory microcosms consisting of soil, porcine faeces, and in soil mixed with 10% porcine faeces, respectively. By plate spreading, survival of B.

Prevalence of Brachyspira pilosicoli and “Brachyspira canis” in dogs and their association with diarrhoea

Veterinary Microbiology, 2010
The aims of this study were to investigate the prevalence of colonization with intestinal spirochaetes in dogs, and to assess their association with diarrhoea. To achieve this, faecal samples from 311 dogs were obtained between November 2008 and April 2009 and cultured for Brachyspira species. A total of 41 Brachyspira spp. isolates were recovered, and
