Peracute bovine mastitis caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae
نویسندگان
چکیده
Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Enterobacter aerogenes are recognized as the most common coliforms in bovine mastitis (Bannerman et al., 2003). Exposure of uninfected quarters to coliform pathogens occur primarily between milkings and, secondarily, during milking procedures and dry period. Coliform pathogens are essentially opportunistic. Their primary reservoir in transmission is represented by feces, water, soil, sawdust, and shavings that contaminate the canal of the teats (Radostits et al., 2007).

CTX-M1 ESBL-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae subsp. pneumoniae isolated from cases of bovine mastitis.
Escherichia coli and Klebsiella spp., followed by Serratia spp. and Enterobacter spp., are the most frequent Gram-negative pathogens isolated from bovine clinical mastitis (8). The incidence of mastitis due to such bacteria has increased in recent years (7). Klebsiella is usually referred as particularly aggressive and prone to cause severe clinical mastitis, which responds poorly to treatment ...
متن کاملDetection and molecular characterization of Escherichia coli CTX-M-15 and Klebsiella pneumoniae SHV-12 β-lactamases from bovine mastitis isolates in the United Kingdom.
Recent reports raised concerns about the role that farm stock may play in the dissemination of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing bacteria. This study characterized the ESBLs in two Escherichia coli and three Klebsiella pneumoniae subsp. pneumoniae isolates from cases of clinical bovine mastitis in the United Kingdom. Bacterial culture and sensitivity testing of bovine mastitic milk...
متن کاملAntigenic homology of the inducible ferric citrate receptor (FecA) of coliform bacteria isolated from herds with naturally occurring bovine intramammary infections.
Expression of ferric citrate receptor FecA by Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from bovine mastitis was investigated. Transformant E. coli UT5600/pSV66, which produces large quantities of FecA in the presence of citrate, was constructed. The FecA of E. coli UT5600/pSV66 was purified by preparative sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and used to prepare p...
متن کاملKlebsiella Species Associated with Bovine Mastitis in Newfoundland
Klebsiella spp. is a common cause of bovine mastitis, but information regarding its molecular epidemiology is lacking from many parts of the world. On using mass spectrometry and partial sequencing of the rpoB gene, it was found that over a one year study, K. variicola and Enterobacter cloacae were misidentified as K. pneumoniae in a small number of clinical mastitis (CM) cases from Newfoundlan...
متن کاملCharacterization of the bovine innate immune response to intramammary infection with Klebsiella pneumoniae.
Gram-negative bacteria are responsible for almost one-half of the clinical cases of mastitis that occur annually. Of those gram-negative bacteria that induce mastitis, Klebsiella pneumoniae remains one of the most prevalent. Detection of infectious pathogens and the induction of a proinflammatory response are critical components of host innate immunity. The objective of the current study was to...
