Impacts of rodents in piggeries in Australia – review and pilot impact study

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 3, Page 2177-2189, March 2026.
Rodent impacts in Australian piggeries are under‐researched, with limited data on economic losses and control costs. A review and pilot study found average losses of AUD$100 000 annually. Key concerns include disease, damage, and control expenses.

Shared and unique microbes between Small hive beetles (Aethina tumida) and their honey bee hosts

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2019., 2019
Honey bee‐associated bacteria were identified from the small hive beetles, which may facilitate the beetle thriving in the bee hive. At the mean time, the honey bee virus colonize and replicate in SHBs, dispersion of host virus by social parasites to floral resources and hives, providing additional threats to honey bees and other insects.

Intestinal spirochetosis

Journal of Coloproctology, 2011
The intestinal spirochetosis (IS) is a histologically defined by the presence of spirochetal microorganisms connected to the apical cell membrane of the colorectal epithelium. The disease is caused by a heterogeneous group of bacteria.

Severe Human Intestinal Spirochetosis: An Unusual Cause of Diffuse Colonic Ulcerations in a Patient Living with HIV

Case Reports in Gastrointestinal Medicine, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
We describe a case of a homosexual male with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and CD4 count of 246 presenting with acute severe bloody diarrhea. Infectious work up was negative, and colonoscopy revealed severe diffuse colonic ulcerations. Histopathologic analysis and Treponemal pallidum immunostaining confirmed the diagnosis of intestinal ...

Molecular and ultrastructural characterization of porcine hippurate-negative Brachyspira pilosicoli. [PDF]

J Clin Microbiol, 2004
ABSTRACT Brachyspira pilosicoli , the causative agent of porcine intestinal spirochetosis, usually has hippurate-cleaving capacity. We have regularly isolated hippurate-negative B. pilosicoli from cases of porcine diarrhea. In this study, we show that these biochemically atypical B.

In vitro antimicrobial susceptibility of Brachyspira pilosicoli isolates from humans. [PDF]

Antimicrob Agents Chemother, 2003
ABSTRACT The in vitro antimicrobial susceptibility of the anaerobic intestinal spirochete Brachyspira pilosicoli was investigated by an agar dilution method. Human ( n = 123) and porcine ( n = 16) isolates were susceptible to metronidazole, ceftriaxone ...
