Effect of carbohydrates on the adhesion of Bordetella bronchiseptica to the respiratory epithelium in rabbits.

This study proposes an ecological approach for preventing respiratory tract infections caused by Bordetella bronchiseptica in mammals using a mixture of carbohydrates. In an in vivo study, 51-day-old New Zealand rabbits were treated with a solution containing 1 × 10 CFUs of B. bronchiseptica and 250 μg of one of the following carbohydrates: N acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), N acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc), alpha methyl mannose (AmeMan), alpha methyl glucose (AmeGlc) and sialic acid (Neu5AC).

Intranasal instillation of Pasteurella multocida lipopolysaccharide in rabbits causes interstitial lung damage.

In order to characterize the in vivo lesions in the nasal cavities and lungs, twenty-eight rabbits were intranasally instilled with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from P. multocida and then divided into seven groups according to euthanasia time. The nasal cavities and the lungs were processed for light microscopy, lectin histochemistry and transmission electron microscopy.

Hemorrhagic complicationes after percutaneous nephrolithotomy: The importance of an early endovascular management.

Introduction And Objectives: Hemorrhage due to arteriovenous fistula (AVF) or pseudoaneurysm (PA) is a rare complication after percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). The objective of this study is to evaluate hemorrhagic complications (HC) after PCNL and the results of their endovascular treatment.

Materials And Methods: Between May 2009 and December 2019, 1335 PCNL were performed in our center for kidney stone disease.

Amperometric biosensor based on a single antibody of dual function for rapid detection of Streptococcus agalactiae.

Pathogenic bacteria are responsible for several diseases in humans and in a variety of hosts. Detection of pathogenic bacteria is imperative to avoid and/or fight their potential harmful effects. This work reports on the first amperometric biosensor for the rapid detection of Streptococcus agalactiae (S.

Piscirickettsia-like organisms as a cause of acute necrotic lesions in Colombian tilapia larvae.

Rickettsial organisms are well-known fish pathogens in both natural and culture environments. This study reports an outbreak of disease in red tilapia larvae caused by piscirickettsia-like organisms (PLOs), which lasted from June until October 2009. Severe mortality was recorded almost exclusively in larvae and postlarvae aged 1-22 days old.
