Seroprevalence of Chlamydophila abortus infection in yaks (Bos grunniens) in Qinghai, China
Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2013Chlamydophila abortus is an important amphixenosis which in a wide range of animals, associated with reproductive disorders in yaks. In order to assess the prevalence of this infection in yaks in Qinghai, China, a cross-sectional study was carried out, and a total of 674 serum samples were collected from June to October 2012 in six counties, and ...

Role of Chlamydophila abortus in ovine and caprine abortion in Sardinia, Italy
Veterinary Research Communications, 2005Between 1999-2003, 14321 sera and 646 abortion samples (498 foetuses and 148 placentae) were analysed from 807 sheep and goat farms distributed all over the island of Sardinia. After notification of abortion in a flock, sera collected at random from adult animals were examined to detect antibodies specific to Chlamydophila (C.) abortus by ELISA ...

Immunopathology of Chlamydophila abortus infection in sheep and mice
Research in Veterinary Science, 2005Chlamydophila abortus targets the placenta, causing tissue damage, inflammation and abortion (enzootic abortion of ewes). It is one of the main infectious causes of abortion in ewes, resulting in major economic losses to agricultural industries worldwide.

Subspecies variation in Greek strains of Chlamydophila abortus
Veterinary Microbiology, 2002The Greek chlamydial strains FAS, FAG, VPG and LLG, isolated from aborted sheep or goat foetuses, had been previously characterized as divergent on the basis of mouse cross-protection experiments, with LLG and its homologous POS significantly different from the rest in inclusion morphology, polypeptide profiles and reactivity with monoclonal antibodies.

Rechallenge of previously-infected pregnant ewes with Chlamydophila abortus
Veterinary Research Communications, 2005In an attempt to ascertain the means whereby previous exposure to Chlamydophila (C.) abortus can protect against the re-occurrence of enzootic abortion of ewes (EAE), ten previously-exposed ewes were intravenously rechallenged with a large infective dose of C. abortus during pregnancy.

Infection of bovine oviduct cell cultures with Chlamydophila abortus
Animal Reproduction Science, 2007Bovine infertility is a major cause of loss in the livestock industry. In the present study bovine oviduct cell cultures were infected with a Chlamydophila abortus strain. A direct evaluation of infection was performed by means of May Grünwald-Giemsa and immunocytochemistry for chlamydial LPS, which revealed inclusion bodies and vacuolisation.
