An infectious disease outbreak and increased mortality in wild alpine reindeer
Ecosphere, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2023., 2023 Abstract Climate changes may lead to tipping points where the epidemiological characteristics of infectious wildlife diseases suddenly change, leading to outbreaks. However, empirically documented cases of the extent to which emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) affect populations of large vertebrates are few, partly because of the limited surveillance ...

Journal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 1, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Bacterial overgrowth is common for improperly stored urine. However, its effects on human urinary extracellular vesicles (uEVs) study had not been previously examined nor documented. This study investigated the presence of bacterial EVs (bEVs) contaminated in uEVs samples and their effects on uEVs study.

Assessment of animal diseases caused by bacteria resistant to antimicrobials: sheep and goats
EFSA Journal, Volume 19, Issue 12, December 2021., 2021 Abstract In this opinion, the antimicrobial‐resistant bacteria responsible for transmissible diseases that constitute a threat to the health of sheep and goats have been assessed. The assessment has been performed following a methodology based on information collected by an extensive literature review and expert judgement.

A longitudinal study of the role of Dichelobacter nodosus and Fusobacterium necrophorum load in initiation and severity of footrot in sheep. [PDF]
Prev Vet Med, 2014 Footrot is an infectious bacterial disease of sheep that causes lameness. The causal agent is Dichelobacter nodosus. There is debate regarding the role of Fusobacterium necrophorum in disease initiation.

Ad hoc method for the assessment of animal diseases caused by bacteria resistant to antimicrobials
EFSA Journal, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2021., 2021 Abstract The European Commission requested EFSA assess antimicrobial‐resistant bacteria responsible for animal transmissible diseases, with a view to listing such pathogens for European Union action. This Scientific Opinion addresses the ad hoc method developed: (i) to give a global state of play as regards resistant animal pathogens that cause ...

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

Gamithromycin in swine: Pharmacokinetics and clinical evaluation against swine respiratory disease
Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 455-464, March 2021., 2021 Intramuscular injection of gamithromycin 15% w/v in swine at 6 mg/kg is characterized by rapid absorption and distribution to tissues. Clinical evaluation in an European field study incorporating 305 swine has shown safe and efficacious treatment for swine with bacterial respiratory disease. Abstract The pharmacokinetics of gamithromycin were evaluated

Simultaneous detection and discrimination of virulent and benign Dichelobacter nodosus in sheep of flocks affected by foot rot and in clinically healthy flocks by competitive real-time PCR. [PDF]
J Clin Microbiol, 2014 Ovine foot rot caused by Dichelobacter nodosus is affecting sheep worldwide. The current diagnostic methods are difficult and cumbersome. Here, we present a competitive real-time PCR based on allelic discrimination of the protease genes aprV2 and aprB2 ...

Multiple locus VNTR analysis highlights that geographical clustering and distribution of Dichelobacter nodosus, the causal agent of footrot in sheep, correlates with inter-country movements. [PDF]
Infect Genet Evol, 2014 Dichelobacter nodosus is a Gram-negative, anaerobic bacterium and the causal agent of footrot in sheep. Multiple locus variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) analysis (MLVA) is a portable technique that involves the identification and enumeration of ...

Delineation of the virulence-related locus (vrl) of Dichelobacter nodosus [PDF]
Microbiology, 1995 Dichelobacter nodosus is the primary pathogen implicated in ovine footrot. In this paper we have delineated a 27 kb locus, termed the virulence-related locus (vrl), that was essentially specific for virulent D. nodosus isolates. The precise ends of this locus were mapped and the sequences of the junction regions from the virulent strain A198 were ...
