First molecular evidence of bovine hemoplasmas in houseflies (Musca domestica) [PDF]

BMC Veterinary Research
Background Hemoplasma infections in cattle are caused by Mycoplasma wenyonii and Candidatus Mycoplasma haemobos and induce asymptomatic or chronic infections but occasionally lead to life-threatening hemolytic anemia.

Hemoplasma infection in wild captive carnivores [PDF]

Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira, 2020
: Hemoplasmas are bacteria able to adhere themselves loosely to the plasma membrane of erythrocytes and may parasitize several species of mammals. There are three known species of hemoplasmas that parasitize domestic and wild cats: Mycoplasma haemofelis,

A review of the occurrence of hemoplasmas (hemotrophic mycoplasmas) in Brazil Uma revisão da ocorrência dos hemoplasmas (micoplasmas hemotróficos) no Brasil

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2009
Recent studies have been conducted in Brazil using molecular techniques for the detection of hemotrophic mycoplasmas in several mammals. In domestic cats, Mycoplasma haemofelis, 'Candidatus M. haemominutum', and 'Candidatus M. turicensis' infections have

Molecular Survey of Hemopathogens in Dogs, Including Blood Donors, from Central-Western Brazil [PDF]

Pathogens
Blood transfusions are indispensable in Veterinary Medicine, providing therapeutic support in cases of hematological disorders. Several pathogens can cause disease and/or exacerbate the condition of immunocompromised dogs or those requiring a transfusion.

Molecular Survey of Hemopathogens in Bats from the Western Brazilian Amazon [PDF]

Pathogens
Bats are considered reservoirs of several emerging zoonotic pathogens. Previous studies on blood parasites such as Anaplasmataceae, hemoplasmas, piroplasmids, and Hepatozoon spp. in South American bats have revealed high genetic diversity.

Apparent prevalence of transplacental transmission of hemotropic mycoplasmas in Holstein dairy calves [PDF]

JDS Communications
Hemotropic mycoplasmas are unculturable bacteria that infect the surface of red blood cells of several mammalian species including cattle. The importance of hemoplasmas in cattle remains unclear and limited information is available about biological ...

Geographically widespread and novel hemotropic mycoplasmas and bartonellae in Mexican free-tailed bats and sympatric North American bat species [PDF]

mSphere
Bacterial pathogens remain poorly characterized in bats, especially in North America. We describe novel (and in some cases panmictic) hemoplasmas (10.1% positivity) and bartonellae (25.6% positivity) across three colonies of Mexican free-tailed bats ...

Detection and genetic characterization of "Candidatus Mycoplasma haemomacaque" infection among long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis) in Thailand using broad-range nested polymerase chain reaction assay [PDF]

Veterinary World, 2021
Background and Aim: Hemoplasmas are defined as small, epicellular parasitic bacteria that can infect the red blood cells of several mammalian species. Diseases caused by these bacteria range from asymptomatic infections to acute hemolytic anemia. However,

Investigation of Some Clinicopathologic Alterations in Cats Infected With Mycoplasma haemofelis and Candidatus Mycoplasma haemominutum in Mashhad, Iran: An Observational Cross-Sectional Study. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
This study detected Mycoplasma haemofelis (34.78%) and Candidatus M. haemominutum (65.21%) in 23% of Iranian cats via PCR. Infection correlated with age, gender and outdoor access (*p < 0.05), causing significant hematologic/biochemical changes. No inter‐species differences in clinical presentation emerged between Mhf and CMhm. ABSTRACT Background Data
