Foot health and prevalence of Dichelobacter nodosus in 11 ungulate species at Berne Animal Park. [PDF]

, 2020
INTRODUCTION Dichelobacter nodosus (D. nodosus) is the etiological agent of ovine footrot affecting mainly sheep worldwide, but also free-ranging wild ungulates such as Alpine ibex (Capra ibex ibex) and mufflon (Ovis orientalis orientalis).

Longitudinal Dichelobacter nodosus status in 9 sheep flocks free from clinical footrot [PDF]

, 2015
Footrot is a widespread problem in Swiss sheep farming. The objectives of this study were to determine whether flocks which were clinically free from footrot carry virulent strains of Dichelobacter nodosus, and to describe the infection dynamics for ...

A Novel 3D Skin Explant Model to Study Anaerobic Bacterial Infection

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017
Skin infection studies are often limited by financial and ethical constraints, and alternatives, such as monolayer cell culture, do not reflect many cellular processes limiting their application.

The prevalence of Dichelobacter nodosus in clinically footrot-free sheep flocks: a comparative field study on elimination strategies

BMC Veterinary Research, 2020
Background Ovine footrot caused by Dichelobacter nodosus (D nodosus) is an infectious disease affecting sheep worldwide. Switzerland plans a nationwide footrot eradication program, based on PCR-testing of interdigital swab samples.

Novel inflammatory cell infiltration scoring system to investigate healthy and footrot affected ovine interdigital skin [PDF]

PeerJ, 2018
Ovine footrot is a degenerative disease of sheep feet leading to the separation of hoof-horn from the underlying skin and lameness. This study quantitatively examined histological features of the ovine interdigital skin as well as their relationship with

Impact of the GouM transporter on secondary metabolism activation and production yield in Streptomyces noursei strain CK‐15

New Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2026.
Overexpression of the gouM transporter gene in Streptomyces noursei CK‐15 enhances gougerotin production by 114% and activates silent biosynthetic gene clusters. This finding links transporter activity to metabolite efflux and secondary metabolism, offering a strategy for natural product discovery and strain optimization.

Molecular epidemiology, clonality and virulence of Dichelobacter nodosus, the agent of ovine footrot [PDF]

, 2005
Dichelobacter nodosus, an anaerobic bacterium, is the major transmissible agent of ovine footrot. The disease expresses as a virulent or benign lesion in the hoof.

Volvulus nodosus of the small intestine: Differences in foals and adults

Equine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 7, Page e440-e445, July 2026.
Summary Background Volvulus nodosus is a strangulating lesion of the small intestine described only in foals and in just one case in older horses. Huskamp et al. (1982, 1998) described the pathophysiology of volvulus nodosus in foals, but to date, there is no description of the pathophysiology of volvulus nodosus in adults.
