Next-generation systematics: An innovative approach to resolve the structure of complex prokaryotic taxa [PDF]

, 2016
Prokaryotic systematics provides the fundamental framework for microbiological research but remains a discipline that relies on a labour- and time-intensive polyphasic taxonomic approach, including DNA-DNA hybridization, variation in 16S rRNA gene ...

First-line antibiotic susceptibility pattern of toxigenic Corynebacterium diphtheriae in Indonesia

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2019
Diphtheria has been reported as an outbreak in some regions in Indonesia, most especially in East Java Province. Resistance to penicillin, erythromycin, and other antibiotics, single or multiple, has been reported in several studies.

Polyanhydride‐Based Microparticles for Programmable Pulsatile Release of Diphtheria Toxoid (DT) for Single‐Injection Self‐Boosting Vaccines

Advanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 32, August 14, 2025.
This study presents a polyanhydride‐based delivery platform for single‐injection, self‐boosting vaccines. The system enables programmable, pulsatile release of diphtheria toxoid with high antigen recovery and is guided by machine learning for tunability. In vivo results show immune responses comparable to multi‐dose regimens, highlighting its potential

Severe Pneumonia Caused by Toxigenic Corynebacterium ulcerans Infection, Japan

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2018
Corynebacterium ulcerans infection was recently recognized as a zoonosis. We present 2 cases of severe pneumonia complicated by diffuse pseudomembrane formation on the bronchus caused by C. ulcerans–producing diphtheria toxin.

Phage‐mediated horizontal transfer of Salmonella enterica virulence genes with regulatory feedback from the host

iMeta, Volume 4, Issue 4, August 2025.
In this study, we found evidence of phage‐mediated horizontal transfer of virulence genes in Salmonella enterica in global habitats from a molecular evolutionary perspective. Notably, csrA, a global regulator in Salmonella enterica, curbed horizontal gene transfer by inhibiting the cyclization and release of prophage.

Diphtheria: A case series from West Maharashtra, India

Journal of Medical Sciences and Health, 2022
Diphtheria is an acute infectious toxin mediated disease caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae. Effective vaccination has decreased the incidence of disease globally. However, despite of a full-fledged Universal Immunization Programme, the cases

Multiplex PCR assay for identification of Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis from pure cultures and for rapid detection of this pathogen in clinical samples. [PDF]

, 2019
: Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis is the aetiological agent of caseous lymphadenitis (CLA), a debilitating disease of sheep and goats. Accurate diagnosis of CLA primarily relies on microbiological examination, followed by biochemical identification of
