Isolation of Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis from Camel in Iran

The isolation of a bacteriophage active against Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis.

Bacteriophages active against Corynebacterium diphtheriae have been detected and are being studied with increasing frequency (Groman and Lockart, J. Bacteriol., 66, 178, 1953; Barksdale and Pappenheimer, J. Bacteriol., 67, 220, 1954). Recently, bacteriophage activity has been reported in another group of the human corynebacteria, the diphtheria-like corynebacteria (Howard and Jann, J. Bacteriol...

Corynebacterium diphtheriae, Corynebacterium ulcerans and Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis—General Aspects

V. A. de. C. Azevedo Departmento de Biologia, Instituto de Ciências Biológicas, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, Belo Horizonte, MG, Brazil Abstract Corynebacterium diphtheriae, Corynebacterium ulcerans and Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis are potentially diphtheria toxin-producing microorganisms related to different infectious processes involving both human and animal hosts. This chapte...

Corynebacterium ulcerans and Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis responses to DNA probes derived from corynephage beta and Corynebacterium diphtheriae.

Strains of Corynebacterium ulcerans and Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis (Corynebacterium ovis) were examined for the production of diphtheria toxin. A majority of C. ulcerans strains (25 of 37) and 1 C. pseudotuberculosis strain (1 of 14) gave a positive Elek test for diphtheria toxin, and for all strains but 1, production of diphtheria toxin was inhibited at the same level of Fe2+ as was th...

omas, and is limited to the cranial-spinal axis, without systemic disease. A known high-risk group for PCNSL comprises patients with immunosuppression, but in the last 15-20 years there has been a threefold increase in patients who are immunocompetent, and the causative factors for this increase are unknown [l-31. PCNSL commonly presents as a rapidly space-occupying lesion. Rarely, patients wit...

Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis RNA-seq data from abiotic stresses

Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis causes significant loss to goat and sheep farmers because it is the causal agent of the infectious disease caseous lymphadenitis, which may lead to outcomes ranging from skin injury to animal death (Ruiz et al., 2011) [1]. This bacterium was grown under osmotic (2 M), acid (pH) and heat (50 °C) stress and under control (Normal-BHI brain heart infusion) conditi...
