The zoonotic importance of Mycobacterium bovis

Tubercle and Lung Disease, 1996
The zoonotic importance of Mycobacterium bovis has been the subject of renewed interest in the wake of the increasing incidence of tuberculosis in the human population. This paper considers some of the conditions under which transmission of M. bovis from animals to humans occurs and reviews current information on the global distribution of the disease.

Monoglycosyldiacylphenol-phthiocerol of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1988
The structure of a minor glycolipid of M. tuberculosis (strain Canetti) is shown to be 2-O-methyl-alpha-L-rhamnosyldiacylphenol-phthiocerol. A similar compound with non-methylated rhamnose as sugar moiety was also detected. In the course of this work, the structure of mycoside B from Mycobacterium bovis was reexamined, and was shown to be identical to ...

Mycobacterium bovis Meningitis

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1982
AN UNUSUAL case of mycobacterial meningitis caused by Mycobacterium bovis is reported. Sparse growth of the initial isolate, obtained from the CSF, raised the possibility of M bovis or resistant M tuberculosis infection. Enhanced growth on a glycerol-free medium and results of biochemical testing led to the identification of M bovis . Report of a Case

Virulence factors of Mycobacterium bovis

Tuberculosis, 2001
Virulence factors of Mycobacterium bovis are the special properties that enable it to infect, survive, multiply and cause disease in an animal host. An understanding of these factors will lead to new strategies including an effective vaccine to control bovine tuberculosis.

Mycobacterium bovis Aneurysm

Infectious Diseases in Clinical Practice, 2016
Abstract Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) is the attenuated strain of Mycobacterium bovis. Intravesicular live attenuated BCG is one of the well-known effective treatments for transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder. Severe disseminated mycobacterial infections in such patients are uncommon. Here, we present a case of M.

Mycobacterium bovis in pet cats

Veterinary Record, 2018
Three clinical cases of feline tuberculosis due to Mycobacterium bovis were recently confirmed in two households in England. What makes these cases unusual is that they occurred in young pedigree cats (under two years old) with no history of outdoor access since they were adopted as kittens. Furthermore, …

Epizootic of Mycobacterium bovis in a zoologic park

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1995
An epizootic of Mycobacterium bovis in a zoologic park resulted in the death of 4 southern white rhinoceroses and 2 colobus monkeys. Zoo personnel were detected that had positive intradermal tuberculin skin test results after exposure to mycobacterial-infected animals.
