pose potential health risks, particularly to young children. While California has reported more cases of baylisascariasis than any other state, few published studies have reported on the distribution and prevalence of this helminth in the region. In 2001, we conducted a study to determine the presence of B. procyonis in the Santa Barbara area by examining roadkill raccoons recovered by animal c...
متن کاملTrojan horse effect: phagocyte-mediated Streptococcus iniae infection of fish.
The salmonid macrophage-like cell line RTS-11 and purified trout pronephros phagocytes were used to analyze in vitro entry and survival of two Streptococcus iniae serotypes. Efficient invasion by S. iniae occurred in both cells, but only the type II strain persisted in pronephros phagocytes for at least 48 h. Ex vivo models of opsonin-dependent phagocytosis by pronephros phagocytes demonstrated...
متن کاملSurvey on viability of Streptococcus iniae in frozen rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) following experimental infection
Streptococcus iniae is one of the most important agents that causes high mortality and losses in rainbow trout farms in Iran and the world. These bacteria can affects the consumers and people who deal with aquaculture via affected fish. So, viability of this bacterium in frozen fish and fish product can be useful for health care of consumers. A total of 90 rainbow trout, with average weight of ...
متن کاملTowards Control of Streptococcus iniae

Those infected to date have been of Asian descent, are usually elderly (average age 68 years), and have had >/=1 underlying conditions that may predispose them to infection. Studies of the foundations of growth characteristics of S. iniae...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of Streptococcus iniae 89353, a Virulent Strain Isolated from Diseased Tilapia in Taiwan
Streptococcus iniae 89353 is a virulent strain isolated from diseased tilapia in Taiwan. The full-genome sequence of S. iniae 89353 is 2,098,647 bp. The revealed genome information will be beneficial for identification and understanding of potential virulence genes of Streptococcus iniae and possible immunogens for vaccine development against streptococcosis.
