The ability of the avian pathogen Mycoplasma gallisepticum to persist despite fluoroquinolone treatment was investigated in chickens. Groups of specific pathogen free chickens were experimentally infected with M. gallisepticum and treated with enrofloxacin at increasing concentrations up to the therapeutic dose. When M. gallisepticum could no longer be re-isolated from chickens, birds were stressed by inoculation of infectious bronchitis virus or avian pneumovirus. Although M. gallisepticum could not be cultured from tracheal swabs collected on several consecutive sampling days after the end of the enrofloxacin treatments, the infection was not eradicated. Viral infections reactivated the mycoplasma infection. Mycoplasmas were isolated from tracheal rings cultured for several days, suggesting that M. gallisepticum persisted in the trachea despite the enrofloxacin treatment. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of enrofloxacin for most of the re-isolated mycoplasmas was the same as that of the strain with which the birds were inoculated. Furthermore, no mutation could be detected in the fluoroquinolone target genes. These results suggest that M. gallisepticum can persist in chickens without development of resistance despite several treatments with enrofloxacin. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal route of infection and the optimal sampling sites for the recovery of M. hyopneumoniae, the etiological agent of enzootic porcine pneumonia. Virulence of two strains, BQ 14 and 116, isolated in France in 1975 and 2003, respectively, was also compared. Groups of specific pathogen free piglets were experimentally infected by the intratracheal or intranasal route. One non-inoculated pig was placed in each group of infected pigs to study direct transmission. Two groups were kept uninfected. Coughing was recorded daily. Blood samples, nasal, tonsillar and tracheal swabs and tracheobronchiolar washings were collected weekly. Pigs were killed 27-37 days post-infection. Lung lesions were scored and swabs were collected from nasal cavities, tonsils, trachea, lung, liver and spleen. All the samples, collected from live and dead pigs, were cultured for M. hyopneumoniae recovery. Results showed that both experimentally infected pigs and contact pigs developed enzootic pneumonia, whatever the route of infection and the strain tested. Direct contact transmission occurred quickly. No difference between the two routes of infection or between the two strains tested was evidenced, but high individual variations were observed between pigs. Tracheal swabs and tracheobronchiolar washings were the most effective samples to detect M. hyopneumoniae compared to nasal or tonsillar swabs. Our results also suggested that tracheobronchiolar washings could have an influence on the lesion extent observed at necropsy. M. hyopneumoniae could be re-isolated from liver and spleen of experimentally infected pigs and contact pigs. 相似文献

This study compared the sensitivity of acetate tape impression and skin squeezing with that of deep skin scraping for the diagnosis of demodicosis in dogs. Demodex canis was detected in 100% of acetate tape impressions obtained after skin squeezing and in 90% of deep skin scrapings. There was a significant difference (P < 0.001) between the techniques in the total number of mites detected. Acetate tape impression with skin squeezing was found to be more sensitive than deep skin scraping and is an alternative diagnostic method for canine demodicosis. 相似文献

Objective To determine the usefulness of a snake venom detection kit (SVDK) in the management of envenomed cats.
Design A clinical study.
Twenty-two cats were investigated.
Procedure Cats injected subcutaneously with approximately 0.25 or 1.0 lethal dose (LD) of tiger snake venom or 1 or 4 LD of brown snake venom were observed for clinical symptoms of envenomation at intervals over the ensuring 24 to 48 hours(h). Blood and urine samples were taken at regular intervals and assayed in a quantitative laboratory assay for snake venoms. Selected samples were assayed in parallel in a rapid, semi-quantitative SVDK.
Results The studies showed that it was important to estimate the elapsed time from envenomation to presentation. If this time was less than 8 h, blood was the most appropriate sample and a negative result should exclude serious envenomation. If the elapsed time exceeded 8 h, it was essential that urine be sampled. Venom levels in urine were high at 8 h and approached the level of test sensitivity over 24 to 48 h; however by this time clinical signs were obvious in endangered cats.
Careful use of the SVDK is a valuable aid in the management of a potentially envenomed cat. 相似文献

The ability of Mycoplasma synoviae, an avian pathogen, to persist despite fluoroquinolone treatments was investigated in hens. Groups of Mycoplasma-free hens were experimentally infected with the M. synoviae 317 strain and treated twice with enrofloxacin at the therapeutic dose. The results show that the two treatments did not have any influence on this strain of M. synoviae recovery from tracheal swabs. Mycoplasmas were isolated from tracheal swab cultures, but not from inner organs such as the liver or spleen, suggesting that this strain of M. synoviae was not able to cross the mucosal barrier to disseminate throughout the host. A significant increase of the resistance level to enrofloxacin of five re-isolated mycoplasma clones, was observed after the second treatment. This increase was associated in two clones to a Ser81-->Pro substitution, found in the ParC quinolone-resistance determining region (QRDR) of DNA topoisomerase IV. This is the first time that a mutation in a gene coding for topoisomerase IV is described in M. synoviae after in vivo enrofloxacin treatments in experimentally infected hens. 相似文献
