abstract

abortion can lead to major economic losses. l. monocytogenes and l. ivanovii can cause infertility and abortion. considering the importance of what mentioned, present study was conducted to detection of l. monocytogenes and  l. ivanovii in bovine abortion from shahrekord, iran. vaginal discharge from 36 aborted cows were investigated to  detection of l. monocytogenes and l. ivanovii. the samples were analyzed by two-stage enrichment techniques, listeria  enrichment broth (leb) as primary enrichment and fraser secondary broth as secondary enrichment. secondly  enrichments were streaked on palcam agar. suspected colonies were evaluated for detecting l. monocytogenes and l.  ivanovii by polymerase chain reaction (pcr) method. l. monocytogenes and l. ivanovii were not found in any sample.  however, we cannot discuss about absence of listeria in the samples certainly and perhaps it is more accurate that suspicious tissues would be tested by direct pcr method, according to the results of this study it is thought that l. monocytogenes and l. ivanovii may have little impact on the incidence of cattle abortion in this region and other infectious agents may play a major role in cattle abortions in this region that has not been investigated in this study. therefore, further investigations especially in the suspected tissues are recommended

investigation of listeria monocytogenes and listeria ivanovii infection in wild cage birds in shahrekord by pcr

most birds probably can carry listeria spp. asymptomatically in their intestines with varying prevalence and can transmit the pathogens to human. the genus-listeria has two pathogenic species namely, l. monocytogenes and l. ivanovii. l. monocytogenes is a well-known cause of abortion, encephalitis and septicaemia in man and animals. l. ivanovii is an animal pathogen and in rare cases cause huma...

Comparative experimental infection of Listeria monocytogenes and Listeria ivanovii in bovine trophoblasts

Listeria monocytogenes is a Gram-positive, facultative intracellular and invasive bacterium that has tropism to the placenta, and causes fetal morbidity and mortality in several mammalian species. While infection with L. monocytogenes and L. ivanovii are known as important causes of abortion and reproductive failure in cattle, the pathogenesis of maternal-fetal listeriosis in this species is po...

Detection of listeriolysin, the thiol-dependent hemolysin in Listeria monocytogenes, Listeria ivanovii, and Listeria seeligeri.

The listeriolysin gene from a weakly hemolytic but virulent strain of Listeria monocytogenes serotype 1/2a was cloned in Escherichia coli K-12. Recombinants were identified on the basis of their cross-reactivities to hyperimmune antisera raised against streptolysin O and listeriolysin. Low levels of hemolytic activity were detected in crude lysates of strains harboring the listeriolysin gene. I...

Production, purification and characterization of hemolysins from Listeria ivanovii and Listeria monocytogenes Sv4b.

In culture supernatants of both Listeria ivanovii and Listeria monocytogenes Sv4b, for the first time a hemolysin of molecular weight 58 kDa was identified, which had all the characteristics of an SH-activated cytolysin, and which was therefore identified as listeriolysin O (LLO). In the case of L. ivanovii a second major supernatant protein of molecular weight 24 kDa co-purified with LLO. Howe...

Molecular Identification of Listeria monocytogenes in Raw Hamburgers from Kerman, South-East of Iran

Background: Listeria monocytogenes is a Gram-positive and facultative anaerobic food-borne bacterium which is capable of intra and extra cellular growth. L. monocytogenes usually can exist on different surfaces and instruments at production and processing sites of food products with animal origin. In Iran, the consumption of burger has increased recently, but its safety is still of great concer...
