Analysis of Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae and Erysipelothrix tonsillarum by multilocus enzyme electrophoresis.
The genetic diversity of 74 Australian field isolates of Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae and 22 reference strains for serovars of E. rhusiopathiae or Erysipelothrix tonsillarum was examined by multilocus enzyme electrophoresis. Four serovar reference strains of E. tonsillarum (strains KS 20 A, Wittling, Lengyel-P, and Bano 107 for serovars 25, 3, 10, and 22, respectively) were genetically distinct...
متن کاملErysipelothrix rhusiopathiae in Laying Hens
The bacterium Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae can infect a wide range of mammals (including humans) and birds. Disease outbreaks (erysipelas) have been considered unusual in chickens internationally, but outbreaks with high mortality and egg production losses have been diagnosed in Swedish laying hen flocks every year since 1998. Different aspects of E. rhusiopathiae infection in chickens were exa...
متن کاملErysipelothrix rhusiopathiae: an occupational pathogen.
Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae is a nonsporulating, gram-positive, rod-shaped bacterium which was identified more than 100 years ago as the etiologic agent of swine erysipelas. Since then, it has been found to cause infection in several dozen species of mammals and other animals. Humans become infected through exposure to infected or contaminated animals or animal products. By far the most common...
متن کاملMechanism of plasma clotting by Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae.
Experiments were performed to determine the mechanism by which Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae clots plasma. Detection of plasma-clotting activity in four strains of E. rhusiopathiae was carried out by mixing a 24-h broth culture of a tested bacterial strain with rabbit plasma (tube coagulation test). Sodium citrate, sodium oxalate, EDTA, and heparin were used as anticoagulants in preparing the ra...
متن کاملErysipelothrix rhusiopathiae pneumonia in an immunocompetent patient.
Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae is a Gram-positive bacillus that causes infections primarily in animals. In humans, this bacterium usually causes localized cutaneous infections called erysipeloid. Here we report a case of pneumonia with isolation of E. rhusiopathiae from bronchoalveolar lavage and sputum. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a pneumonia case caused by E. rhusiopathiae con...
