Stability and stabilization of Fusobacterium necrophorum hemolysin

Veterinary Microbiology, 1996
The stability and stabilization of the hemolytic activity of Fusobacterium necrophorum subsp. necrophorum and Fusobacterium necrophorum subsp. funduliforme were monitored over a period of four weeks using culture supernatants. The hemolytic activity was completely lost after one week at room temperature and 37 degrees C.

Adherence of fusobacterium necrophorum to vero cells

Zentralblatt für Bakteriologie, Mikrobiologie und Hygiene. Series A: Medical Microbiology, Infectious Diseases, Virology, Parasitology, 1985
The adherence of the anaerobic species Fusobacterium necrophorum to the surface of Vero cells was studied. Adherence between the bacterium and the tissue culture cells was paralleled by the hemagglutinability of F. necrophorum. Treatment of the bacterial cells with lactoalbumin hydrolysate or anti-F.

Human infections with Fusobacterium necrophorum

Anaerobe, 2006
Fusobacterium necrophorum is a Gram-negative anaerobic bacillus that can be a primary pathogen causing either localised abscesses and throat infections or systemic life-threatening disease. Systemic infections due to F. necrophorum are referred to as either Lemierre's disease/syndrome, post-anginal sepsis or necrobacillosis, but in the context of this ...

Lemierre's syndrome due to Fusobacterium necrophorum

The Lancet Infectious Diseases, 2012
We present a case of a patient with Lemierre's syndrome caused by Fusobacterium necrophorum who developed a right frontal lobe brain abscess. We summarise the epidemiology, microbiology, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnosis, complications, therapy, and outcomes of Lemierre's syndrome.

Fusobacterium necrophorum Sepsis With Cerebral Infarction

Southern Medical Journal, 1989
We have described the case of a 23-month-old female child in whom Fusobacterium sepsis progressed to cerebral infarction despite therapy with intravenous chloramphenicol and ampicillin. Some clinical improvement was noted upon addition of metronidazole to the treatment regimen. The child survived, but has severe neurologic sequelae.

Otogenic Fusobacterium necrophorum meningitis

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1991
AbstractA case of meningitis secondary to acute suppurative otitis media in a previously healthy child is reported. The only organism isolated from blood after aerobic and prolonged anaerobic culture was identified as Fusobacterium necrophorum. Complete recovery followed treatment with surgery and prolonged antibiotic therapy.

Fusobacterium necrophorum Septicemia

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1983
To the Editor.— We wish to add to the list of serious complications associated with Fusobacterium necrophorum septicemia as reported by Seidenfeld, Sutker, and Luby (1982; 248:11:1348). Report of a Case.— A 16-year-old girl was admitted to the hospital was suspected meningitis. Five weeks earlier, she had been seen when results from a slide test for

Aggregation of bovine platelets by Fusobacterium necrophorum

Veterinary Microbiology, 1992
Washed cell suspensions of biovar A strains of Fusobacterium necrophorum aggregated cattle platelets, but similar suspensions of biovar B strains did not. Platelets were also aggregated by heat-treated bacterial cells or the lipopolysaccharide of biovar A. No platelet aggregation occurred in the presence of the cell-free culture supernatant of biovar A

Orbital abscess caused by Fusobacterium necrophorum

International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology, 2004
We report the case of previously healthy boy with orbital abscess secondary to sinusitis. Fusobacterium necrophorum and Streptococcus anginosus was cultured both from the maxillary sinus and the orbital abscess. After surgical drainage and intravenous antibiotic treatment the boy recovered without complications.

Characterization of Fusobacterium necrophorum subsp. necrophorum outer membrane proteins

Anaerobe, 2018
Liver abscesses are of major economic importance to the cattle industry. These are mainly associated with the presence of Fusobacterium necrophorum, a non-spore forming and Gram-negative anaerobe. There are two main subspecies, F. necrophorum subspecies necrophorum and subsp. funduliforme, and they differ molecularly, morphologically, biochemically and
