Isolation of Campylobacter fetus subsp. jejuni from migratory waterfowl.
Since the sources from which humans acquire Campylobacter enteritis are only partially known, we studied the frequency of carriage of Campylobacter fetus subsp. jejuni in migratory waterfowl. Cecal contents of various species of wild ducks were cultured on selective media that contained antibiotics to inhibit normal flora. Thirty-five percent of the 445 ducks cultured harbored C. fetus subsp. j...
متن کاملIsolation of Campylobacter fetus subsp. jejuni from Bangladeshi children.
To determine the prevalence of infection with Campylobacter fetus subsp. jejuni in Bangladesh, culture surveys were conducted among three populations. In Dacca, Campylobacter was isolated from 5.2% of 97 individuals with clinical dysentery and from 12.3% of 204 patients with only diarrhea. This difference may have resulted from a greater representation of young children in the second group. Cam...
متن کاملEnrichment medium for isolation of Campylobacter jejuni-Campylobacter coli.
A broth enrichment medium for the improvement of isolation of Campylobacter jejuni-Campylobacter coli from stool samples and other specimens is presented. Of 1,228 samples examined in parallel, positive results were obtained from 81 by direct inoculation of selective media and from 112 after enrichment. Thus, an increase of 27.7% in the isolation rate was obtained by using the enrichment medium...
متن کاملEnriched brucella medium for storage and transport of cultures of Campylobacter fetus subsp. jejuni.
A semisolid brucella medium with 10% sheep blood was used for storage and transport of Campylobacter fetus subsp. jejuni and subsp. intestinalis and kept isolated alive about 3 weeks or longer at 25 degrees C or when sent through the regular mail.
متن کاملComparison of selective media for primary isolation of Campylobacter fetus subsp. jejuni.
Three selective media, Skirrow, Butzler, and a modification of Butzler medium, were compared for the primary isolation of Campylobacter fetus subsp. jejuni. This organism was isolated from 87 of 347 specimens (72 from 240 dogs rectal swabs and 15 from 107 cats rectal swabs). The positive rate for dogs (30%) was twice as high as that for cats (14%). Skirrow and Butzler media were comparable in t...
