Chromobacterium violaceum infection in a free ranging howler monkey in Costa Rica
(Wildlife Disease Association, 2010)
Chromobacterium violaceum is a gram-negative saprobe bacterium that is a rare opportunistic pathogen in mammals. There are numerous reports in humans including fatalities, but no record exists in free-ranging nonhuman ...
A Sinorhizobium meliloti and Agrobacterium tumefaciens ExoR ortholog is not crucial for Brucella abortus virulence
(PLOS ONE, 2021-08-13)
Brucella is a facultative extracellular-intracellular pathogen that belongs to the Alphaproteo-
bacteria class. Precise sensing of environmental changes and a proper response mediated
by a gene expression regulatory ...
In vivo animal models confrm an increased virulence potential and pathogenicity of the NAP1/RT027/ST01 genotype within the Clostridium difcile MLST Clade 2
(BioMed Central, 2020-09-22)
Background: Based on MLST analyses the global population of C. difcile is distributed in eight clades, of which
Clade 2 includes the “hypervirulent” NAP1/RT027/ST01 strain along with various unexplored sequence types ...
Tuberculosis bovina: implementación del diagnóstico molecular y concordancia con técnicas diagnósticas utilizadas en Costa Rica.
(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2016-06)
La tuberculosis bovina es una enfermedad bacteriana crónica con
potencial zoonótico causada por Mycobacterium bovis. Los programas de control
y erradicación se basan en la detección de bovinos reactores a la prueba ...

(Camara Nacional de Productores de Leche, 2016-09-29)
La paratuberculosis o enfermedad de Johne es una enfermedad incurable de los rumiantes, ocasionada por una bacteria denominada Mycobacterium aviun subespecie paratuberculosis o MAP. Esta bacteria ocasiona una enteritis ...
Expertos alertan sobre peligrosa bacteria en aves, mamíferos y reptiles
(Oficina de Comunicación, Universidad Nacional, 2021-06)
La manipulación inadecuada de las
excretas, secreciones o cadáveres de aves,
reptiles, anfibios y mamíferos podría
pasar de una tarea cotidiana a una seria
complicación de salud, tanto en animales
como en personas. ...
Platelet depletion does not alter the course of Brucella abortus infection in vivo
(Elsevier, 2022-02-23)
Brucellosis is a bacterial disease of animals and a zoonotic infection. Thrombocytopenia is a common outcome in
long-lasting brucellosis in humans. Likewise, ex vivo experiments have shown that platelets may play a role ...
Determination of streptomycin and doxycycline using LC/MS towards an effective treatment against an experimental Brucella abortus infection in mice
(Elsevier B.V, 2022-02-25)
Herein we described a versatile liquid chromatographic method for detection and quantification of the total
levels of two antimicrobials [i.e., streptomycin (STM) and doxycycline (DOX)], in mice plasma and selected
tissues, ...
Aerobic bacterial flora of nesting green turtles (Chelonia mydas) from Tortuguero National Park, Costa Rica
(American Association of Zoo Veterinarians, 2006)
Bacteriological examination of 70 nesting green turtles (Chelonia mydas) from Tortuguero National Park, Costa Rica was performed to investigate nasal and cloacal aerobic bacteria. A total of 325 bacterial isolates were ...
Antimicrobial activity of myotoxic phospholipases A2 from crotalid snake venoms and synthetic peptide variants derived from their C-terminal region
(Elsevier, 2005)
A short peptide derived from the C-terminal region of Bothrops asper myotoxin II, a Lys49 phospholipase A2 (PLA2), was previously found to reproduce the bactericidal activity of its parent molecule. In this study, a panel ...
