Diagnosis of contagious caprine pleuropneumonia by detection and identification of Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. capripneumoniae by PCR and restriction enzyme analysis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1996
Contagious caprine pleuropneumonia (CCPP), one of the most serious and dramatic diseases of goats, is caused by Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. capripneumoniae (M. capripneumoniae). This organism is very difficult to isolate and to correctly identify.

Proposal for Designation of F38-Type Caprine Mycoplasmas as Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. capripneumoniae subsp. nov. and Consequent Obligatory Relegation of Strains Currently Classified as M. capricolum (Tully, Barile, Edward, Theodore, and Erno 1974) to an Additional New Subspecies, M. capricolum subsp. capricolum subsp. nov. [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1993
A subspecies relationship with the existing species Mycoplasma capricolum is appropriate for the F38 group of mycoplasmas, the causative agent of classical contagious caprine pleuropneumonia. We believe that this classification is justified on the basis of the close DNA-DNA relationship recently reported for isolates belonging to the two groups and the

Nematode Infection Depresses Humoral Immune Responses of Goats to Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. capripneumoniae Vaccine Antigens [PDF]

Journal of Animal Health and Production, 2018
Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. capri pneumoniae (Mccp) causes contagious caprine pleuropneumonia (CCPP), a disease of goats characterised with a high morbidity and mortality in non vaccinated goats. The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of nematode infection on humouralimmune responses to Mccp vaccine in goats.

Experimental mastitogenicity of Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. capripneumoniae for rabbit mammary glands.

Indian journal of experimental biology, 1998
Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. capripneumoniae of cow-udder origin was tested in rabbit mammary-glands for its mastitogenic capability. Establishment of mycoplasma organisms and presence of histopathological lesions in mammary glands were the parameters for describing mastitogenic potential.

Effect of glycerol on preservation of Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. capripneumonia (Mccp) in frozen lung Samples

Journal of Agriculture, Science and Technology
Mycoplasma capricolum subspecies capripneumoniae (Mccp) is the causative agent of contagious caprine pleuropneumonia (CCPP), a  disease that affects the respiratory system of goats. Diagnosis of CCPP encounters challenges since Mccp is fastidious making it difficult  to isolate or revive from stored samples.

Isolation and Characterization of Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. capripneumoniae from Sheep and Goat Pneumonic Lungs

International Journal of Applied Sciences and Biotechnology
Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. Capripneumoniae (Mccp) is the causative agent of contagious caprine plueropneumonia (CCPP). In many countries CCPP is diagnosed by clinical signs and serological methods only. Mccp is known to be difficult to culture in the laboratories due to the fastidious nature of the organism.

Improvement of specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the identification of Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. capripneumoniae

AFRICAN JOURNAL OF BIOTECHNOLOGY, 2011
A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test for the identification of Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. capripneumoniae (Mccp) was optimized using the H2 gene sequences of M1601. The test was evaluated on 20 strains including six representative strains of the Mycoplasma mycoides cluster as well as 13 field isolates from China, Pasteurella multocida and ...
