A Study of the Ultrastructure and the Life Cycle of Dermatophilus congolensis

Zentralblatt für Veterinärmedizin Reihe B, 2010
Summary The smooth form of Dermatophilus congolensis was studied in the scanning electron microscope and both rough and smooth forms were studied in the transmission electron microscope. Flagellate zoospores and non-flagellate cocci were found dividing.

Identification of an alkaline ceramidase gene from Dermatophilus congolensis

Veterinary Microbiology, 2004
A random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) procedure was used to identify a specific 0.6 kb DNA fragment unique to Dermatophilus congolensis. This 0.6 kb fragment was evaluated as a specific DNA probe and used to design oligonucleotide primers for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification.

Dermatophilus congolensis Chronic Nodular Disease in Man

Pediatrics, 1974
Dermatophilus 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.

Experimental vaccination of rats with Dermatophilus congolensis zoospores

Research in Veterinary Science, 1988
The 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 ...

Studies on Dermatophilus congolensis zoospores

1979
A surface viable count of Dermatophilus congolensis colonies on blood agar was found to be a satisfactory method of assaying zoospores in suspension. A filter system using Millipore filters was set up and the movement of zoospores across the filter was studied under different conditions.

Electrophoretic and antigenic characterisation of Dermatophilus congolensis extracellular products

Veterinary Microbiology, 1997
Dermatophilus congolensis is the causative agent of bovine dermatophilosis and lumpy wool in sheep. Two field isolates of D. congolensis, one each from a cow in Ghana and a sheep in Scotland, were cultured for 24-72 h in a synthetic medium based on RPMI-1640.

Dermatophilus congolensis: Strain differences in expression of phospholipase activities

Veterinary Microbiology, 1997
Interactions between Dermatophilus congolensis strains and with other bacteria of known haemolytic activities were used to elucidate the complex nature of haemolytic activities present in various D. congolensis strains. This was further analysed by measuring their specific phospholipase activities against defined substrates by thin layer chromatography.

[Dermatophilus congolensis infection in Brandenburg].

DTW. Deutsche tierarztliche Wochenschrift, 1995
At 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.

Dermatophilus congolensis infection (dermatophilosis) in animals and man! An update

Comparative Immunology, Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 1993
Dermatophilus congolensis infection (dermatophilosis) is an acute, subacute or chronic skin disease affecting a wide range of species of animals and man. It is world widely distributed but more prevalent in the humid, tropics and subtropics. The disease is now being reviewed in detail.

Preliminary Investigation on the Ecology of Dermatophilus Congolensis: Vorläufige Untersuchung über die Ökologie von Dermatophilus congolensis

Mycoses, 2009
Summary: Attempts using different techniques to isolate Dermatophilus congolensis from 72 samples of soil collected from different localities in Sohag Province did not succeed. Examination of 120 hair specimens obtained from clinically healthy cattle revealed the recovery of 3 strains of the fungus.
