BACKGROUND AND AIM Animal chlamydiosis, caused by different chlamydial species, is characterized by clinical or subclinical disease manifestations in cattle, buffalo, ovine, caprine and wild animal species. Animal chlamydiosis often remains underdiagnosed or undiagnosed, and its status in many parts of India is still unknown. Hence, the present study was conducted to determine the seroprevalenc...

The literature on the various disease syndromes caused by chlamydia in domestic and laboratory animals is summarized. A review of the pathological lesions which characterize these diseases is presented and the pathogenesis of chlamydiosis is briefly discussed. Some aspects of unpublished findings on the occurrence of intestinal, kidney and genital lesions in natural and experimental cases of ch...

Psittacosis, also known as parrot fever and ornithosis, is a bacterial infection of humans that can cause severe pneumonia and other serious health problems. It is caused by Chlamydophila psittaci, formerly known as Chlamydia psittaci. From 1988 through 2003, 935 human cases of psittacosis were reported to the CDC and most resulted from exposure to infected pet birds, usually cockatiels, parake...

Koala populations are in catastrophic decline in certain eastern Australian regions. Spanning from 1997-2013, a database derived from wildlife hospitals in southeast Queensland with N = 20,250 entries was classified by causes of morbidity and mortality. A total of 11 aetiologies were identified, with chlamydiosis, trauma, and wasting being most common. The clinical diagnosis at submission varie...

The aim of the research was to conduct an in-depth analysis investigation chlamydial infections occurred in cats and dogs Kyiv during last 10 years. article includes three main directions investigation: 1) epizootic situation with chlamydiosis; 2) Microbiological 3) Serological monitoring. clinical epizootiological studies chlamydiosis have been looked into, focus on differences similarities ag...

Extragenital chlamydial complications may be associated with systemic spread of infection, but haematogenous route for C. trachomatis dissemination has not been clearly demonstrated. Here we report that serum specimens obtained from patients with chlamydiosis contain elementary bodies of C. trachomatis shown by culture and immunogold electron microscopy. We have found that 31 of the 52 patients...

in order to investigate seroprevalence of turkey's chlamydiosis in khuzestan province, 270 turkeys, of different sex and ages from different parts of khuzestan province were bleed and their sera were tested for antibodies to chlamydophila psittaci using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (immunocomb-ils). according to results the seroprevalences of chlamydiosis were 58.9% in tested turke...
