3450 bovine from different breeds and ages were clinically examined for the presence of arthritis. 120 cases showed macroscopic evidences of arthritis. mycoplasma spp were isolated from synovial fluid of 21 affected animals. in addition to mycoplasma spp. arcanobacterium pyogenes and staphylococcus epidermidis were isolated from 2 cases. the synovial fluid was markedly increased, straw color, t...

Routine blood analysis indicated the presence of Mycoplasma-like bodies in a guigna (Leopardus guigna). Evidence infection with Candidatus Mycoplasma haemominutum was found samples using PCR and DNA sequencing 16S rRNA gene Mycoplasma. spp. are documented cats but their role transmission to populations requires investigation.

Globally, hemotropic Mycoplasma spp. are emerging or re-emerging zoonotic pathogens that affect livestock, wildlife, companion animals, and humans, potentially causing serious and economically important disease problems. Little is known about hemotropic Mycoplasma spp. prevalence, host-specificity, or route of transmission in most species, including wildlife. DNA amplification by PCR targeting ...

Objectives: The symbiosis of Trichomonas vaginalis and Mycoplasma hominis is the first described association between two obligate human parasites. Trichomonas is the niche and the vector for the transmission of M. hominis infection. This clinically significant symbiosis may affect T. vaginalis virulence and susceptibility to treatment. The aims of this study were to investigate the intracellula...

BACKGROUND Mycoplasma mastitis is increasingly posing significant impact on dairy industry. Although the effects of major conventional mastitis pathogens on milk components has been widely addressed in the literature, limited data on the effects of different Mycoplasma and Acholeplasma spp. on milk quality and quantity is available. The aim of this study was to determine the casual relationship...

Camel is an economically important farm animal used for meat, milk and hair production in the Middle-East and North Africa [1]. Mycoplasmas are highly contagious organism capable of auto-replication and difficult to culture and slow growing [2,3]. Camel joints are infected by variety of infectious diseases that may affect their racing performance. Mycoplasma spp. are considered the common cause...

A total of 301 men and women attending local urologists and gynaecologists in the state of Thessaly, central Greece, were tested for Chlamydia trachomatis, Ureaplasma spp., Mycoplasma genitalium and Mycoplasma hominis DNA. Investigation of the tet(M) gene, which confers tetracycline resistance in these genera, was also performed. Low incidence of C. trachomatis and Mycoplasma spp. as well as hi...

i n a survey of pneumonia due to mycoplasma 282 out of 12168 ovine and caprine lung condemnation were collected (2.32%). mycoplasma spp. has been isolated from pneumonic cases in 4 sheep and 2 goats. pcr studies were confirmed the genus of mycoplasma although attempting for identification of strains m. mycoides, m. capricolum/caprine pleuropneumonia and m. arginin were in failure. the lesions i...
