Isolation of Actinobacillus lignieresii and Actinobacillus equuli from laboratory rodents.
Actinobacillus lignieresii and Actinobacillus equuli were cultured from a total of 36 guinea pigs, rats, and mice. The organisms were isolated from the oropharynx, the conjunctiva, and middle ear. Isolates were initially screened by eight biochemical tests to determine whether they were of the genus Actinobacillus. Actinobacillus spp. were then differentiated by fermentation reactions of nine c...
متن کاملGenetic diversity of Actinobacillus lignieresii isolates from different hosts
Genetic diversity detected by analysis of amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLPs) of 54 Actinobacillus lignieresii isolates from different hosts and geographic localities is described. On the basis of variances in AFLP profiles, the strains were grouped in two major clusters; one comprising strains isolated from horses and infected wounds of humans bitten by horses and another consistin...
متن کاملMultifocal suppurative granuloma caused by Actinobacillus lignieresii in the peritoneum of a beef steer
An imported crossbred Angus beef steer aged eight to twelve months died suddenly on the eighth day of a quarantine period in Japan. Gross examination showed the peritoneum and mesentery consisted of numerous nodules of various sizes. Histological examination revealed chronic suppurative granulomatous peritonitis with eosinophilic rosettes surrounding colonies of Gram-negative bacilli. The bacte...
متن کاملFinal classification of Bisgaard taxon 9 as Actinobacillus arthritidis sp. nov. and recognition of a novel genomospecies for equine strains of Actinobacillus lignieresii.
Phenotypic characterization of bacteria from diseased and healthy horses identified 18 isolates as Bisgaard taxon 9 and 11 isolates as Actinobacillus lignieresii. All strains of taxon 9 were alpha-galactosidase- and raffinose-positive and showed variable fermentation of (+)L-arabinose and (-)D-sorbitol. Strains of A. lignieresii were negative for these characteristics, with the exception of raf...
متن کاملActinobacillus spp. and related bacteria in infected wounds of humans bitten by horses and sheep.
We describe the isolation of Actinobacillus lignieresii and an A. equuli-like bacterium from an infected horse-bite wound in a 22-year-old stable foreman and A. suis from a bite injury in a 35-year-old man who had been attacked by a horse. A. lignieresii was also isolated in pure culture from an infected sheep-bite wound in a rural worker. These species of the genus Actinobacillus are primarily...
