چکیده

The in vitro susceptibility of 14 European Chlamydia psittaci strains from turkeys to the antibiotics doxycycline and enrofloxacin was tested. For doxycycline the MIC ranged from 0.05 to 0.2 microg/ml, with an average of 0.1 microg/ml. For enrofloxacin the MIC was 0.25 microg/ml. Acquired resistance was not detected against doxycycline and enrofloxacin.

In vitro activities of ofloxacin and four other new quinoline-carboxylic acids against Chlamydia trachomatis.

The in vitro activities of five new quinoline-carboxylic acids against 2 reference strains and 45 clinical isolates of Chlamydia trachomatis of genital origin were compared with the activities of minocycline and doxycycline. Ofloxacin was the third most active agent (after the two tetracyclines), followed by ciprofloxacin, NY-198, and AM-833.

High-level expression of Chlamydia psittaci major outer membrane protein in COS cells and in skeletal muscles of turkeys.

The omp1 genes encoding the major outer membrane proteins (MOMPs) of avian Chlamydia psittaci serovar A and D strains were cloned and sequenced. The nucleotide sequences of the avian C. psittaci serovar A and D MOMP genes were found to be 98.9 and 87.8% identical, respectively, to that of the avian C. psittaci serovar A strain 6BC, 84.6 and 99.8% identical to that of the avian C. psittaci serov...

A Promising Recombinant Herpesvirus of Turkeys Vaccine Expressing PmpD-N of Chlamydia psittaci Based on Elongation Factor-1 Alpha Promoter

The obligate intracellular Gram-negative bacterium Chlamydia psittaci often causes avian chlamydiosis and influenza-like symptoms in humans. However, the commercial subunit C. psittaci vaccine could only provide a partial protection against avian chlamydiosis due to poor cellular immune response. In our previous study, a recombinant herpesvirus of turkeys (HVT)-delivered vaccine against C. psit...

Construction of Recombinant HVT Expressing PmpD, and Immunological Evaluation against Chlamydia psittaci and Marek’s Disease Virus

Chlamydia psittaci (C. psittaci) is an obligate intracellular zoonotic pathogen that can be transmitted to humans from birds. No efficacious commercial vaccine is available for clearing chlamydial infection due to lack of potential vaccine candidates and effective delivery vehicles. Herpesvirus of turkeys (HVT) is an efficacious commercially available vaccine against Marek's Disease virus (MDV)...
