Neglected zoonotic agents in cattle abortion: tackling the difficult to grow bacteria. [PDF]
Coxiella burnetii, Chlamydia abortus and Leptospira spp. are difficult to grow bacteria that play a role in bovine abortion, but their diagnosis is hampered by their obligate intracellular lifestyle (C. burnetii, C. abortus) or their lability (Leptospira

The geographical region of origin determines the phagocytic vulnerability of Lichtheimia strains
Summary Mucormycoses are life‐threatening infections that affect patients suffering from immune deficiencies. We performed phagocytosis assays confronting various strains of Lichtheimia species with alveolar macrophages, which form the first line of defence of the innate immune system.

Abstract The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of myristic acid on jejunal mucosal microbiota, mucosal immunity, and growth performance of nursery pigs. Thirty‐six pigs (6.6 ± 0.4 kg of body weight) were assigned to three treatments (n = 12) for 35 d in three phases: (NC) basal diet; (PC) NC + bacitracin; and (MA) NC + myristic ...

First Report of Chlamydiaceae Seroprevalence in Tibetan Pigs in Tibet, China [PDF]
The seroprevalence of Chlamydiaceae infection in Tibetan pigs in Tibet, China, was examined by indirect hemagglutination assay (IHA), between April, 2010, and December, 2010. A total of 71 of 427 serum samples (16.63%, 95% confidence interval [CI] 15.31-17.95] were positive for Chlamydiaceae antibodies.

Zoonotic Chlamydiae as rare causes of severe pneumonia
Zoonotic species of the Chlamydiaceae family should be considered as rare pathogenic agents of severe atypical pneumonia. A fatal case of a severe pneumonia due to Chlamydia psittaci was traced back to pet birds, and pneumonia in a pregnant woman was ...

Prevalence of Chlamydia abortus in Belgian ruminants [PDF]
Chlamydia (C.) abortus enzootic abortion still remains the most common cause of reproductive failure in sheep-breeding countries all over the world. Chlamydia abortus in cattle is predominantly associated with genital tract disease and mastitis.
