Development of Streptococcus agalactiae vaccines for tilapia [PDF]

Diseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2016
Vaccination is a widely accepted and effective method to prevent most pathogenic diseases in aquaculture. Various species of tilapia, especially Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus, are farmed worldwide because of their high consumer demand. Recently, the tilapia-breeding industry has been hampered by outbreaks of Streptococcus agalactiae infection ...

Innovative Field Applications of Probiotics, Prebiotics, and Medicinal Plant Products for Disease Control in Aquaculture

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disease outbreaks and the associated reliance on antibiotics pose major constraints to the sustainability of modern aquaculture. As regulatory pressures increase and consumer demand shifts toward residue‐free production, diverse biological interventions are gaining prominence as viable alternatives to chemotherapeutics.

Isolation and Characterization of Streptococcus agalactiae Bacteriophage

Journal of General Virology, 1969
Temperate and virulent phages are known to occur in streptococci of groups A, C and D (Bradley & Kay, 1960; Brailsford & Hartman, 1968; Brock, 1964; Follett, 1967; Kjems, 1960; Rogers & Sarles, 1963). No phage has been reported for group B streptococci; we report the isolation of such a phage and give some of its properties.

Neonatal meningitis due to Streptococcus agalactiae [PDF]

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 1968
HAEMOLYTIC streptococci were first subdivided into groups by precipitation of specific carbohydrate (Lancefield, 1933, 1934). It soon became apparent that most serious streptococcal infections were caused by organisms of Group A. Although organisms of Group B were known to cause mastitis in cattle there was little evidence of pathogenic activity in man.

Assessing of the antibacterial properties of thyme (Thymus vulgaris) essential oil against streptococcus spp. isolated from clinical cases in Nile tilapia: an in vitro study [PDF]

Benha Veterinary Medical Journal
In the current study, an agar disc diffusion test was used to determine whether or not the thyme essential oil (TEO) had antibacterial properties. Using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), the essential oil of thyme was analyzed.

Microbial Contamination in Deceased Musculoskeletal Tissue Donors: A Large‐Scale US Analysis of Infection Risk

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
This large‐scale study of over one‐million musculoskeletal swabs highlights anatomical variability in microbial contamination of musculoskeletal tissues and identifies high‐risk recovery zones for virulent organisms. ABSTRACT Background Microbial contamination of musculoskeletal tissues recovered from deceased donors poses a risk for donor‐derived ...

Assessment of the efficacy of large volume delayed sampling primary culture and pathogen reduction in preventing septic reactions from platelet transfusions

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Many mitigation processes have been introduced to reduce septic transfusion reactions (STRs) caused by the transfusion of bacterially contaminated PLTs. Methods The efficacy of primary culture and pathogen reduction is assessed in this review using data from long‐term hemovigilance programs in the US, Canada, UK, France, Switzerland,

Bacterial screening of platelet donations in England, 2014–2023

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Bacterial contamination of blood components is an ongoing problem in transfusion medicine. We analysed the bacterial screening data of platelets from England, 2014–2023, and compared this with data on reported near‐misses and transfusion‐transmitted infections (TTIs). Materials and Methods Anonymized data on bacterial
