A Case of Mycoplasma haemofelis Infection in a Korean Domestic Shorthair Cat

Journal of Veterinary Clinics, 2014
A six-months-old male Korean domestic shorthair cat was presented with fever, tachypnea, anorexia, and weight loss and admitted to Lee Seung Jin Animal Medical Center. During the routine physical examination, clinical signs such as mild dehydration and jaundice in the sclera were present. The complete blood count (CBC) and serum chemistry result showed

Molecular detection of hemotropic mycoplasmas (hemoplasmas) in domestic cats (Felis catus) in Romania

BMC Veterinary Research, 2020
Background The hemotropic mycoplasmas (hemoplasmas) of the genus Mycoplasma are recognized as important bacteria that parasitize red blood cells, causing hemolytic anemia in many mammalian species, including cats.

Co-infection with Mycoplasma haemofelis and ‘ Candidatus Mycoplasma haemominutum’ in three cats from Brazil

Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery, 2007
The two most common haemotropic Mycoplasma of cats, Mycoplasma haemofelis and ‘ Candidatus Mycoplasma haemominutum’ have been identified using molecular techniques in all continents, except Antarctica. We report the first molecular characterization in South America of a dual infection with M haemofelis and ‘ Candidatus Mycoplasma haemominutum’ in three

Use of Real-Time PCR To Detect and QuantifyMycoplasma haemofelisand “CandidatusMycoplasma haemominutum” DNA [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2003
ABSTRACTA real-time PCR assay using Taqman probes was developed to detect and quantifyMycoplasma haemofelisand “CandidatusMycoplasma haemominutum” in feline blood samples. The assay was rapid and sensitive and was successfully used to monitor the in vivo kinetics of cats experimentally infected with each species.

Clinical evaluation of outdoor cats exposed to ectoparasites and associated risk for vector-borne infections in southern Italy

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
Background Cats can be carriers of infected arthropods and be infected with several vector-borne pathogens (VBP) but there is limited knowledge about their pathogenic role in cats.

Determination of Mycoplasma haemofelis Incidence in Cats Visiting Veterinary Clinics in Kırıkkale

, 2022
This study aimed to determine the presence of Mycoplasma haemofelis (Mhf), which is a member of the hemotropic mycoplasmas called infectious anemia of cats, known to be zoonotic, usually progresses with hemolytic anemia in cats, and can lead to the death of the cat if not treated, in the Kırıkkale province by the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) method.

Molecular Diagnosis of Mycoplasma haemofelis and ‘Candidatus Mycoplasma haemominutum’ in Domestic Feline: A Case Report

Advances in Research
The aim of this work was to report the molecular diagnosis of Mycoplasma haemofelis and 'Candidatus Mycoplasma haemominutum' in a domestic feline. Mycoplasma spp. are pleomorphic bacteria that parasitize the surface of red blood cells in several domestic species, mainly cats, being responsible for feline mycoplasmosis, which can cause hemolytic anemia.

Uso da técnica de Southern Blot/Hibridização associada à reação em cadeia da polimerase para aumentar a sensibilidade no diagnóstico das infecções por hemoplasmas em gatos domésticos: Use of Southern Blot/Hybridization technique associated to polymerase chain reaction to improve the sensitivity in the diagnosis of hemoplasma infections in domestic cats

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2009
O objetivo deste trabalho foi verificar se a técnica de Southern Blot/Hibridização (SB) em associação à reação de polimerização em cadeia (PCR) aumenta a sensibilidade na detecção de DNA de hemoplasmas em gatos domésticos (Felis catus).
