Multifocal Pulmonary Abscesses due to Trueperella Pyogenes in Sheep

A Rare Case of Bovine Abortion Due to Trueperella Pyogenes

A case was presented with the report of abortion in a jersey crossbred cow about 4 th month of gestational age. Samples were collected from aborted cow and aborted foetus. The samples were found to be negative for Brucella spp., Leptospira spp., and Camphylobacter spp. Cultural and biochemical characters identified as Trueperella pyogenes. Further, Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) using gene spe...

Phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of Trueperella (Arcanobacterium) pyogenes isolated from lung abscesses of one-humped camels (Camelus dromedarius) in Jordan

Two strains of Trueperella (Arcanobacterium) pyogenes previously isolated from lung abscesses of two camels (Camelus dromedarius) in Jordan were identified phenotypically, by MALDI-TOF MS analysis and genotypically using T. (A.) pyogenes 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer region (ISR) and T. (A.) pyogenes superoxide dismutase A encoding gene sodA specific oligonucleotide primers. Both isolates coul...

Aminoglycoside resistance of Trueperella pyogenes isolated from pigs in China

We aimed to determine the resistance mechanisms of 27 T. pyogenes isolates from swine in the Jilin province of China. Drug sensitivity analysis indicated that most of the isolated strains were resistant to aminoglycosides. We investigated the genes involved in target alteration, drug inactivation, and increased efflux as potential resistance mechanisms. Two known aminoglycoside resistance genes...

Abortion due to Brucella abortus in Sheep in Iran

Hepatosplenic abscesses due to Yersinia enterocolitica.

Infection with Yersinia enterocolitica is being reported with increasing frequency from many parts of the world (Mollaret, 1971). Only 20 cases of the septicaemic form have been reported (Chessum et al., 1971; Mollaret et al., 1971) and only four cases with multiple liver abscesses (Hassig et al., 1949; Bloquiaux, 1968). The rarity of this condition induced us to describe a further cases with i...
