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 ...
Backyard Chicken Flocks Pose a Disease Risk for Neotropic Birds in Costa Rica
(American Association of Avian Pathologists, 2008)
Pathogens of free-ranging chickens create a risk of disease for wild birds, some of which migrate to the United States, as well as potential economic losses for resource-poor farmers. Free-roaming backyard chickens are ...
Brucella abortus transits through the autophagic pathway and replicates in the endoplasmic reticulum of nonprofessional phagocytes
(American Society for Microbiology, 1988-09-01)
Brucella abortus is an intracellular pathogen that replicates within a membrane-bounded compartment. In
this study, we have examined the intracellular pathway of the virulent B. abortus strain 2308 (S2308) and the
attenuated ...
Brucella abortus lipopolysaccharide in murine peritoneal macrophages acts as a down-regulator of T cell activation
(The American Association of Immunologists, Inc., 2000)
Macrophages play a central role in host immune responses against pathogens by acting as both professional phagocytic cells and
as fully competent APCs. We report here that the LPS from the facultative intracellular ...
Francisella sp., an emerging pathogen of tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (L.), in Costa Rica
(Blackwell, 2009)
Francisella sp. is an emergent bacterial pathogen that
causes acute to chronic disease in warm and cold
water cultured and wild fish species. During the past
3 years, the bacterium has been detected in tilapia,
Oreochromis ...
MyD88, but not Toll-Like receptors 4 and 2, Is required for efficient clearance of Brucella abortus
(American Society for Microbiology, 2005-08)
It is not clear how the host initially recognizes and responds to infection by gram-negative pathogenic
Brucella spp. It was previously shown (D. S. Weiss, B. Raupach, K. Takeda, S. Akira, and A. Zychlinsky, J.
Immunol. ...

(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2017)
Clostridium difficile es un enteropatógeno con amplia distribución geográfica e
importancia a nivel clínico; su virulencia y resistencia a los antimicrobianos son actual objeto
de estudio a nivel internacional. En animales, ...
