Bacteria is the main cause of genital disorder. Abortion, recurrent abortion and placenta retention are disorder accompanying with pregnancy failure. The current study aimed to find relationship between this Campylobacter infection species related For purpose, 50 aborted fetuses vaginal swabs were collected. Case history multiplex PCR applied. result showed that detected at a rate 26% in cases ...

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) recently published a report on factors that may contribute to the spread of Campylobacter in live chickens and chicken carcasses. The findings of the report [1], based on an European Union (EU)-wide survey [2] will provide the basis for further work by scientific experts to investigate further how Campylobacter-contaminated chicken meat affects the leve...

OBJECTIVES: Campylobacteriosis is one of the most important human foodborne infections, attributed to broiler chicken consumption in about 30% of cases. In a recently published costutility model of potential Campylobacter control measures in the EU-27, disease burden and cost of illness estimates were driven by data from the Netherlands. The aim of our work was to gather country-specific cost o...

Macrolides are the antimicrobials of choice for treating human campylobacteriosis. The recent emergence of erm(B) in Campylobacter bacteria threatens the utility of this class of antibiotics. Here we report the constitutive and inducible expression of erm(B) in Campylobacter isolates derived from diarrheal patients and food-producing animals. Constitutive expression of erm(B) was associated wit...

While evaluating quinolone resistance in a sample of Campylobacter isolates recovered from patients with campylobacteriosis in Los Angeles County, California, in 1998, we discovered that the second most frequently isolated species was Campylobacter upsaliensis (6 [4%] of 155 isolates). The ability of laboratories to recover this species may be dependent on the culture conditions and the media u...
