Waddlia, Parachlamydia and Chlamydiaceae in bovine abortion [PDF]

Veterinary Microbiology, 2011
The etiology remains unknown in many cases of bovine abortion in Switzerland. Bacteria of the Chlamydiales order are known abortive agents, therefore cases of bovine abortion from three representative regions of Switzerland were investigated in this study. Particularly Chlamydiaceae as well as the Chlamydia-like organisms Waddlia and Parachlamydia were

A real-time PCR assay for the detection of atypical strains of Chlamydiaceae from pigeons. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Recent evidence of the occurrence of atypical Chlamydiaceae strains in pigeons, different from the established Chlamydiaceae, requires the development of a specific and rapid detection tool to investigate their prevalence and significance.

Synonymous Codon Usages as an Evolutionary Dynamic for Chlamydiaceae [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2018
The family of Chlamydiaceae contains a group of obligate intracellular bacteria that can infect a wide range of hosts. The evolutionary trend of members in this family is a hot topic, which benefits our understanding of the cross-infection of these pathogens.

PCR Detection and Molecular Identification of Chlamydiaceae Species [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2001
ABSTRACT Recent taxonomic developments, based on 16s and 23s rRNA gene sequences, have divided the family Chlamydiaceae into two genera and nine species, of which five have been found to infect humans. Few simple methods are available to detect and identify all species sensitively and specifically. In this

One-year surveillance of Chlamydia spp. infection in stray cats from northeastern Italy [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
Stray cats potentially act as reservoir for zoonotic agents, posing a risk of exposure to humans and domestic cats. The most prevalent Chlamydiaceae species in cats is Chlamydia (C.) felis, which is frequently associated with conjunctivitis and/or upper ...

Survey on Chlamydiaceae in cloacal swabs from Swiss turkeys demonstrates absence of Chlamydia psittaci and low occurrence of Chlamydia gallinacean. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2019
In Switzerland, domestic turkey meat is a niche product. Turkeys are fattened on mixed family-based farms scattered across the country, with most providing access to an uncovered outdoor pasture for the birds.

Prevalence, risk factors and genetic diversity of Chlamydia felis in cats [PDF]

Journal of Veterinary Research
Chlamydia felis is the main chlamydial pathogen of cats and is associated with conjunctivitis and respiratory disease. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of Chlamydiaceae and Chlamydia felis, to explore risk factors and predictors (age, sex ...

DNA vaccination against Chlamydiaceae: current status and perspectives [PDF]

Veterinary Research, 2004
DNA vaccination (also called genetic vaccination) recently celebrated its ten years of existence. This new method of immunization presents several advantages, including the induction of both humoral and cellular immune responses. This vaccination strategy has been very successful and has served as a basis for numerous experiments that had the aim of ...
