Evidence that the 36kb plasmid of Brachyspira hyodysenteriae contributes to virulence [PDF]
, 2011 Swine dysentery (SD) results from infection of the porcine large intestine with the anaerobic intestinal spirochaete Brachyspira hyodysenteriae. Recently the genome of virulent Australian B. hyodysenteriae strain WA1 was sequenced, and a 36. kilobase (kb)

Confirmation that “Brachyspira hampsonii” clade I (Canadian strain 30599) causes mucohemorrhagic diarrhea and colitis in experimentally infected pigs [PDF]
, 2014 BACKGROUND: “Brachyspira hampsonii”, discovered in North America in 2010 associated with dysentery-like illness, is an economically relevant swine pathogen resulting in decreased feed efficiency and increased morbidity, mortality and medication usage. “B.

An in silico reverse vaccinology study of Brachyspira pilosicoli, the causative organism of intestinal spirochaetosis, to identify putative vaccine candidates [PDF]
, 2022 Brachyspira pilosicoli is a zoonotic bacterium that can cause intestinal spirochaetosis (IS) in avian species (AIS), pigs (PIS) and humans (HIS). In the absence of vaccines to prevent infections, we used genome-based reverse vaccinology (RV) to identify ...

Colonic Spirochetosis in a 60-Year-Old Immunocompetent Patient: Case Report and Review [PDF]
, 2016 Spirochetes, a genetically and morphologically distinct group of bacteria, are thin, spiral-shaped, and highly motile. They are known causes of several human diseases such as syphilis, Lyme disease, relapsing fever, and leptospirosis. We report a case of

Enteric diseases in pigs from weaning to slaughter [PDF]
, 2003 The general aim of this thesis was to study enteric diseases in growing pigs, with special reference to diseases caused by Brachyspira hyodysenteriae and Lawsonia intracellularis. The occurrence of enteric diseases in “growers” is a problem of increasing

Detección de Brachyspira pilosicoli y otras especies de Brachyspira en granjas avícolas argentinas
Revista Argentina de Microbiología, 2016 ResumenAlgunas especies del género Brachyspira, como Brachyspira pilosicoli, Brachyspira intermedia y Brachyspira alvinipulli, son especies patógenas capaces de producir enfermedad en gallinas ponedoras. En nuestro país, la presencia de B. pilosicoli y otras especies de Brachyspira ha sido informada en cerdos y en perros, pero no existen antecedentes ...
