Feline tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium bovis infection of domestic UK cats associated with feeding a commercial raw food diet

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 2308-2320, July 2021., 2021
Abstract Mycobacterium (M.) bovis can infect cats and is a demonstrated zoonosis. We describe an outbreak of M. bovis in pet cats across England and Scotland associated with feeding a commercial raw food diet. Forty‐seven cats presented with (pyo)granulomatous lesions, lymphadenopathy, pulmonary and/or alimentary disease over a one‐year period where M.

Predominant Tuberculosis Spoligotypes, Delhi, India

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2004
One hundred five Mycobacterium tuberculosis clinical isolates from the Delhi area were typed by spoligotyping; 45 patterns were identified. Comparison with an international spoligotype database showed type 26, Delhi type (22%), type 54 (12%), and type 1, Beijing type (8%), as the most common.

The Significance of Spoligotyping Method in Epidemiological Investigations of Tuberculosis

open access: yesAdvances in Respiratory Medicine, 2007
Introduction: The control of tuberculosis (TB) requires methods for rapid detection and tracing sources of infection, so that further transmission can be arrested. Recent developments in molecular biology have resulted in techniques that allow prompt identification and tracking specific strains of M.

Population Dynamics of Tuberculous Bacilli in Cameroon as Assessed by Spoligotyping [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 2013
ABSTRACT Genetic assessment by spoligotyping of 565 Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex strains collected from the Western Region of Cameroon between 2004 and 2005 has confirmed the establishment of the “Cameroon family” as the leading cause of tuberculosis in 45.9% of cases and evidenced the rapid quasi ...
