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 کاملComplete genome sequence of Actinobacillus equuli subspecies equuli ATCC 19392T
Actinobacillus equuli subsp. equuli is a member of the family Pasteurellaceae that is a common resident of the oral cavity and alimentary tract of healthy horses. At the same time, it can also cause a fatal septicemia in foals, commonly known as sleepy foal disease or joint ill disease. In addition, A. equuli subsp. equuli has recently been reported to act as a primary pathogen in breeding sows...
متن کاملActinobacillus equuli septicemia: an unusual zoonotic infection.
We describe the isolation of Actinobacillus equuli from the blood of a 53-year-old butcher with septicemia. This species of the genus Actinobacillus is primarily associated with animals and animal diseases, especially septicemia in foals. This is the first report of the isolation of A. equuli from a human with septicemia.
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 کاملFirst Human Case of Meningitis and Sepsis in a Child Caused by Actinobacillus suis or Actinobacillus equuli.
We report the first human case of meningitis and sepsis caused in a child by Actinobacillus suis or A. equuli, a common opportunistic pathogen of swine or horses, respectively. Identification was performed by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry and real-time PCR assay. A previous visit to a farm was suspected as the source of infection.
