Pasteurella species cause zoonotic infections in humans. Human pasteurella infections usually manifest as local skin or soft tissue infection following an animal bite or scratch. Systemic infections are less common and are limited to patients at the extremes of age or those who have serious underlying disorders, including cirrhosis. Most human pasteurella infections are caused by the multocida ...

BACKGROUND Pasteurella species, widely known as indigenous organisms in the oral and gastrointestinal floras of many wild and domestic animals, are important pathogens in both animals and humans. Human infections due to Pasteurella species are in most cases associated with infected injuries following animal bites. We encountered a rare case of dual infections caused by different two Pasteurella...

Pasteurella dagmatis was identified as the etiologic agent of peritonitis in a continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis patient by utilizing a molecular kit in our hospital's clinical laboratory. This method would appear a useful approach to identify a species of Pasteurella not included in the existing database of commercial identification kits when discrepancies exist between phenotypic tests.

Pasteurella species are part of the oral flora of cats and dogs. In humans, they are frequently found in infected animal bite wounds, but invasive infections are rare. This is the first report of prosthetic-valve endocarditis with a Pasteurella dagmatis-like species, which originated from the patient's cat.

Pasteurella species are commensal bacteria of the respiratory airways and oronasal cavity of animals. In this study, we report an unusual case of Pasteurella dagmatis isolation from dog urine with uroliths. An 11-year-old female dog was admitted to the Veterinary Hospital of Ahvaz University complaining of abdominal pain, hematuria, dysuria and stranguria. In clinical and radiological examinati...

Structure-guided active-site redesign of a family GT-80 β-D-galactoside sialyltransferase (from Pasteurella dagmatis) to change enzyme regioselectivity from α-2,3 in the wild type to α-2,6 in a P7H-M117A double mutant is reported. Biochemical data for sialylation of lactose together with protein crystal structures demonstrate highly precise enzyme engineering.

A case of bacteremia in a 74-year-old man, which was caused by Pasteurella dagmatis and complicated by thrombocytopenia, is presented. Microorganism identification was performed by the provincial reference laboratory using traditional biochemical profiling, completmented with both the sequencing of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass sp...
