(Revista de parasitología veterinaria, 2011-05-12)
Information regarding parasitic fauna of cetaceans from Costa Rica is provided for the first
time. A total of 25 stranded dolphins and whales were examined between 2001 and 2009,
including striped dolphin (Stenella ...
Pathology of striped dolphins (Stenella coeruleoalba) infected with Brucella ceti
(Elsevier Ltd, 2009-10-14)
Seventeen striped dolphins (Stenella coeruleoalba) displaying swimming disorders compatible with neurological syndromes were investigated for Brucella infection. Sixteen dolphins had meningoencephalomyelitis. Serum antibody ...
Serological diagnosis of brucella infections in odontocetes
(American Society for Microbiology, 2009-04-15)
Brucella ceti causes disease in Odontoceti. The absence of control serum collections and the diversity of
cetaceans have hampered the standardization of serological tests for the diagnosis of cetacean brucellosis. Without ...
Neurobrucellosis in stranded dolphins, Costa Rica
(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2008-09)
Ten striped dolphins, Stenella coeruleoalba, stranded along the Costa Rican Pacifi c coast, had meningoencephalitis and antibodies against Brucella spp. Brucella ceti was isolated from cerebrospinal fl uid of 6 dolphins ...
Brucella ceti and brucellosis in cetaceans
(Frontiers in cellular and infection microbiology, 2012-02-06)
Since the first case of brucellosis detected in a dolphin aborted fetus, an increasing number of Brucella ceti isolates has been reported in members of the two suborders of cetaceans: Mysticeti and Odontoceti. Serological ...
