conclusions this study provides initial data on the prevalence and distribution of the flaa, cadf, ciab, cdtb, cgtb, docc and wlan genes in c. jejuni. background campylobacter jejuni (c. jejuni) is a major cause of human diarrheal disease. objectives this study was conducted to determine the prevalence of different pathogenic genes in isolates recovered from human stool samples in rosario, arge...

Background: Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli are zoonotic bacteria which are frequently associated with human diarrhea. Sharing of the cytolethal distending toxin (cdt) genes in Campylobacter is common and is considered species specific. OBJECTIVES: In this study we focused on detecting the presence of cdt gene in C. jejuni and C. coli isolated from broilers, turkeys and quails of Ir...

diarrheal disease is one of the main causes of death in developing countries. this study was performed to the prevalence of bacterial causes of diarrhea in patients admitted to the military hospitals and imam khomeini medical center hospital. this cross-sectional study was conducted in a period of 9 months from june 2014 to february 2015, 435 non-duplicative diarrheal stool samples were collect...

Campylobacter jejuni is a major cause of food-borne diarrhea in many countries. Poultry and poultry products are known as important sources of human campylobacteriosis. In this study, conventional culture and multiplex PCR methods were compared for the detection of C. jejuni isolated from poultry carcasses. A total of 100 samples, representing 20 broiler flocks, were collected from poultry carc...

Background: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of virulence-associated genes and enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus PCR (ERIC-PCR) analysis of Campylobacter spp. isolated from children with diarrhea in Iran. Methods: A total of 200 stool specimens were obtained from children under 5 years during July 2012 to July 2013. Detection of C. jejuni and C. coli was perfo...

Campylobacter jejuni accounts for a significant number of foodborne illnesses around the world. C. jejuni is microaerophilic and typically does not survive efficiently in oxygen-rich conditions. We recently reported that hyper-aerotolerant (HAT) C. jejuni are highly prevalent in retail poultry meat. To assess the capabilities of HAT C. jejuni in foodborne transmission and infection, in this stu...
