A retrospective case series of 66 foals with presumed acute interstitial pneumonia
Summary Background There is limited literature describing acute interstitial pneumonia (AIP) in foals. Objectives Description of clinical and ultrasonographic findings in 66 foals affected by AIP. Investigation into whether the number of AIP cases is associated with specific climatic conditions. We also investigated whether clinical, haematological and

Nitrile hydratase of Rhodococcus erythropolis: characterization of the enzyme and the use of whole cells for biotransformation of nitriles [PDF]
The intracellular cobalt-type nitrile hydratase was purified from the bacterium Rhodococcuserythropolis. The pure enzyme consisted of two subunits of 29 and 30 kDa. The molecular weight of the native enzyme was estimated to be 65 kDa. At 25 °C the enzyme

Antimicrobial Resistance in Rhodococcus equi
ABSTRACT Pneumonia caused by Rhodococcus equi remains an important cause of disease and death in foals. The combination of a macrolide (erythromycin, azithromycin, or clarithromycin) with rifampin has been the recommended treatment for foals with clinical signs of infection caused by R. equi

International Spread of Multidrug-Resistant Rhodococcus equi
A multidrug-resistant clone of the animal and human pathogen Rhodococcus equi, MDR-RE 2287, has been circulating among equine farms in the United States since the 2000s. We report the detection of MDR-RE 2287 outside the United States. Our finding highlights the risk for MDR-RE spreading internationally with horse movements.
