Animals | Free Full-Text | Comparison of Multiple-Locus Variable-Number Tandem Repeat Analysis Profiles of Enteropathogenic Yersinia spp. Obtained from Humans, Domestic Pigs, Wild Boars, Rodents, Pork and Dog Food
1. Introduction The enteropathogenic Yersinia genus is present in both domestic pigs and wild boar [1,2,3], and pork is suggested as the most probable source of infection in humans [4,5]. Common symptoms of acute yersiniosis include abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhoea, and chronic sequelae such as reactive arthritis and erythema nodosum may occur.

Repeated nasopharyngeal lavage predicts freedom from silent carriage of Streptococcus equi after a strangles outbreak
Abbreviations GPL guttural pouch lavage NPL nasopharyngeal lavage 1 INTRODUCTION Strangles is a highly infectious upper respiratory tract disease in horses throughout most of the world, caused by the β-hemolytic Lancefield group C bacteria, Streptococcus equi subspecies equi (hereafter S. equi). Acutely, the disease is associated with fever, lethargy and swollen abscessed lymph nodes over a period of weeks or even months1 after which most horses recover uneventfully.
Differences in the genome, methylome, and transcriptome do not differentiate isolates of Streptococcus equi subsp. equi from horses with acute clinical signs from isolates of inapparent carriers

Effect of on-farm interventions in the aftermath of an outbreak of hypervirulent verocytotoxin-producing Escherichia coli O157:H7 in Sweden
In 2007, human infections with a hypervirulent strain of verocytotoxin-producing Escherichia coli O157:H7 increased in Sweden and especially in the Halland County. A connection between the cases and a local beef cattle farm with an on-farm abattoir and meat processing plant was established. In this observational study the control measures implemented on the infected farm and the dynamics of infection in the herd are described.
