Characterisation of Mycobacterium Bovis Strains Isolated from Farm and Wild Animals in Poland
نویسندگان
چکیده
Sixty-one isolates of M. bovis (58 from cattle and three from wild animals) from eight regions of Poland were analysed. Molecular analysis was done using HAIN and spoligotyping methods. Drug susceptibility of the isolates to streptomycin, izoniazid, rifampicin, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide was tested by proportional methods on solid and liquid media. By spoligotyping, 47 (77%) isolates were identified as M. bovis subsp. bovis and 14 (23%) isolates were identified as M. bovis subsp. caprae. Eleven animals of the domestic cattle (18%) and all wild animals were infected by M. bovis subsp. caprae. Among cattle infected by M. bovis, 12 spoligotypes were identified, most of them not registered in the SpolDB4 database. The strains isolated from 15 animals of the domestic cattle were the same spoligo pattern. In conclusion, transmission of mycobacteria among the farm and wild animals has been suspected.

Tuberculosis in Antelopes in a Zoo in Poland--Problem of Public Health.
Bovine tuberculosis is an infectious disease that occurs in many species of both domestic and wild animals, as well as those held in captivity. The etiological factor is the acid resistant bacillus (Mycobacterium bovis or Mycobacterium caprae), which is characterized by the major pathogenicity among mycobacteria belonging to the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex. The material from 8 antelopes ...
متن کاملMolecular characterisation of Mycobacterium bovis isolated from cattle slaughtered at the Bamako abattoir in Mali
BACKGROUND Mali is one of the most important livestock producers of the Sahel region of Africa. A high frequency of bovine tuberculosis (BTB) has been reported but surveillance and control schemes are restricted to abattoir inspections only. The objective of this study was to conduct, for the first time, molecular characterisation of Mycobacterium bovis strains isolated from cattle slaughtered ...
متن کاملEvaluation of pathogenesis caused in cattle and guinea pig by a Mycobacterium bovis strain isolated from wild boar
BACKGROUND In many regions of the world, wild mammals act as reservoir of Mycobacterium bovis, a situation that prevents the eradication of bovine tuberculosis. In order to observe whether a strain isolated from a wild boar, previously tested as highly virulent in a mice model, is also virulent in cattle, we performed cattle experimental inoculation with this strain RESULTS Groups of Friesian...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequences of Two Mycobacterium bovis Strains Isolated from Beef Cattle in Paraguay
This work reports the draft genome sequences of the Mycobacterium bovis strains M1009 and M1010, isolated from the lymph nodes of two infected cows on a beef farm in Paraguay. Comparative genomics between these strains and other regional strains may provide more insights regarding M. bovis epidemiology in South America.
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequences of Three Mycobacterium bovis Strains Identified in Cattle and Wildlife in France
Mycobacterium bovis is the etiologic agent of bovine tuberculosis, a chronic infectious disease affecting livestock, wild animals, and sometimes humans. We report here three draft genome sequences of Mycobacterium bovis strains of spoligotypes SB0821 and SB0134, isolated from wildlife but circulating in wildlife-livestock multihost systems, and SB0121, circulating exclusively in cattle.
