Pitted Keratolysis and Dermatophilus congolensis
Archives of Dermatology, 1972Pitted keratolysis is a multifocal superficial erosion of the stratum corneum, usually limited to the soles of the feet. A causative agent has been described previously, but its identity is unclear. While studying a lesion of pitted keratolysis, we found an actinomycete with the morphologic appearance of Dermatophilus congolensis , the cause of ...

Dermatophilus congolensis Infection in Goats in Tanzania
Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2001When goats in Eastern Tanzania were screened for skin diseases, Dermatophilus congolensis was isolated from the skin lesions in 8 of 484 animals examined. In one severely affected case, the disease was also characterized by histological studies (Gram stain, Giemsa stain and routine HE studies) and electron microscopy.

Quantification of keratinolytic activity from Dermatophilus congolensis
Medical Microbiology and Immunology, 1991The bacterium Dermatophilus congolensis is the causative agent of pitted keratolysis, a skin disease. Infection occurs mainly in keratinized tissues and it is necessary for the organism to produce and excrete exoenzymes which are able to degrade keratin.

Chemotherapy of epidermal infection with Dermatophilus congolensis
Journal of Comparative Pathology, 1967Abstract The action of a number of chemotherapeutic agents on the actinomycete Dermatophilus congolensis , was studied in cultures and in the epidermis of parenterally infected guinea-pigs and sheep. Of the agents giving bacteriostatic concentrations in serum all eight arrested the hyphal invasion of guinea-pig epidermis, at least temporarily.

DERMATOPHILUS CHELONAE IN A KING COBRA (OPHIOPHAGUS HANNAH)
Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2004A mass was removed from the left flank of a 10-yr-old male king cobra (Ophiophagus hannah), and histologic examination revealed granulomatous dermatitis with intralesional gram-positive cocci and filamentous bacteria. Fourteen months later, a histologically similar subcutaneous mass was removed from a different site.

Dermatophilus congolensis Chronic Nodular Disease in Man
Pediatrics, 1974Dermatophilus congolensis is a common infectious agent among animals. However, infectivity in man has only rarely been observed. We report the association of D. congolensis with a chronic nodular disease in an 8-year-old boy. The time of exposure to the organism was unknown but may have occurred in utero.

Dermatophilus Infection: The Clinical Disease and Diagnosis
Zentralblatt für Veterinärmedizin Reihe B, 2010Summary The clinical picture of streptothricosis in cattle and horses, and of mycotic dermatitis and strawberry foot rot in sheep in the Sudan and Great Britain is described. Diagnosis should not be based solely on the macroscopic appearance of the lesions.

Experimental vaccination of rats with Dermatophilus congolensis zoospores
Research in Veterinary Science, 1988The number of zoospores recoverable from the skin of rats five days after challenge with Dermatophilus congolensis, was reduced if the rats had been injected intradermally with zoospores of this bacterium two weeks previously. The difference between zoospore recovery in vaccinated and control rats was increased when the challenge was applied to ...

Serological characteristics of particulate antigens of Dermatophilus
Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1969Particulate antigens were prepared in the form of mycelial fragments and spores, or as cell walls from 24 strains of Dermatophilus and from 22 strains of other actinomycetes. The antigen preparations were tested with either non-labeled or fluorescein isothiocyanate labeled antisera or antiserum globulins.

[Dermatophilus congolensis infection in Brandenburg].
DTW. Deutsche tierarztliche Wochenschrift, 1995At first time Dermatophilus (D.) congolensis-infection was diagnosed in Brandenburg in 3 sheep herds and in one horse, which had contact to diseased sheep. The causative agent was introduced from West-Germany probably. Cause of the disease was influenced by a longer rain period and by secondary infections through Staph. aureus var. ovis.
