Campylobacter sp in eggs from cloacal swab positive breeder hens [PDF]
Campylobacter sp is a microaerophilic, thermotolerating Gram negative bacterium, known to be one of the main causes of food-borne human infections. Among the foods that carry these microorganisms, the chicken is outstanding. In Brazil, a large chicken exporting country, few researches are conducted about their prevalence in breeder hens and the ...

Cloacal swabs are unreliable sources for estimating lower gastro-intestinal tract microbiota in chicken [PDF]
Abstract BackgroundThe gastrointestinal microbiota in chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus) has a central role in health and performance. The ceca are a vital site of functional activity, but assessing cecal microbiota in longitudinal studies remains a challenge. The cecal communities are broadly similar to large intestine samples.

spa Typing and Antibiotic Resistance Profiles of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Isolates From Broilers in Ilam, Iran. [PDF]
This study characterized MRSA in broilers in Ilam, Iran. Of 200 swabs, 107 Staphylococcus aureus isolates were confirmed by femA PCR, of which 9 (8.41%) were MRSA (mecA‐positive). spa typing revealed five distinct types, with t011 dominant (40%). Novel types for Iran included t304, t567 and t1184.

Antibiotic-Resistant Salmonella, isolated from cloacal swab samples from turtles in Guatemala
Salmonellosis is a relevant public health threat worldwide. Reptiles are commonly involved in cases in humans. A microbiological survey was conducted from August to October 2018 to isolate Salmonella bacteria and look for antibiotic-resistant isolates in pet turtles of five species (Kinosternon sp., Rhinoclemmys sp., Staurotypus sp., Trachemys scripta ...

Multiple novel filamentous phages detected in the cloacal swab samples of birds using viral metagenomics approach [PDF]
AbstractMembers of the family Inoviridae (inoviruses) are characterized by their unique filamentous morphology and infection cycle. The viral genome of inovirus is able to integrate into the host genome and continuously releases virions without lysing the host, establishing chronic infection.

Seasonal Dynamics of the Gut Microbiome in Urban Feral Pigeons Are Associated With Environmental Conditions, Not With Diet Shifts. [PDF]
Using feral pigeons in urban environments, we show that microbiome diversity and composition vary seasonally despite stable diet composition. ABSTRACT Gut microbiomes play a crucial role in host physiology and seasonal adaptation. While seasonal shifts in avian gut microbiota are often attributed to seasonal diet variation, environmental factors may be
