A Review of Mycoplasma in Laboratory Mice
Mycoplasma are small, cell-free bacteria enclosed by a membrane. These bacteria belong to the class of Mollicutes, the order of Mycoplasma tales, and the genus of Mycoplasma. There are more than 100 identified species of mycoplasma. The ratio of cytosine to guanine in its DNA is 23–40% and its genome size is 1350–600 kb. Mycoplasma require cholesterol to grow, and the temperature su...
متن کاملT-strains of mycoplasma and nongonococcal urethritis.
Since the isolation by Dienes and Esdall (1937) of a strain of Mycoplasma from a patient with a Bartholin's gland abscess, numerous attempts have been made to provide definite proof of the aetiological role of Mycoplasma in urogenital tract infections, especially nongonococcal urethritis (NGU). Most of the earlier studies were concerned with Mycoplasma hominis, but it now appears that this spec...
متن کاملGenome annotation of five Mycoplasma canis strains.
To understand its potential to cause invasive disease, the genome of Mycoplasma canis strain PG14(T) from a dog's throat was compared to those of isolates from the genital tract or brain of dogs. The average nucleotide identity between strain pairs is 98%, and their genome annotations are similar.
متن کاملCharacterization of mycoplasma strains from cats.
Mycoplasma strains (B1, B2, CS, and S1A) were isolated from the saliva of normal cats. These were compared with a strain (CO) isolated from the eye of a cat with severe conjunctivitis. On the basis of morphology, biochemical reactions, and antigenic composition, two distinct species were recognizable. Strains CO, B1, and B2 were antigenically unrelated to the other species tested; strains CS an...
متن کاملBiochemical diversity of Mycoplasma fermentans strains.
In this study, the metabolism of a diverse range of Mycoplasma fermentans strains was investigated. It was shown that the ability to utilise glucose, fructose and N-acetylglucosamine differentiated strains, and that the patterns and kinetics of substrate utilisation were correlated with the site of isolation, i.e. joint fluid, respiratory tract, urinary tract or cell culture. Interestingly, iso...
