Uniloacular hydoatidosis is a zoonotic parasitic disease representing a major public health problem in many countries around the world, including Egypt. Close relation¬ships between dogs and humans appear to correlate with the high prevalence of the disease in endemic areas (Moro 2009) and camel is an influential reservoir of the disease. We selected the universal primers based on the highly conserved NADH dehyedrogenase 1 gene (Bowles and McManus, 1993) and our data indicated that the purified and partially sequenced PCR products generated 399 bp of NADH dehydreogenase 1 gene. The sequances were aligned by cluster grouping where the clusters aligned the most similar sequances firstly then progressively more distant groups of …show more content…
The exclusive finding of the G6 vareant in all camel and human isolates in Qalyobia Governorate, Egypt indicates the presence of a predominant transmission cycle in which the camel strain exist. Our findings confirms a previous study done using RAPD-PCR for characterization of human and animal hydatid cysts, it has been shown that human and camel isolates were the most related pair and camels are important hosts for the transmission of human hyadatidosis (Azab 2004). Similarly, performing the cycle sequencing and nucleotide sequence analysis identified the G6 genotype in 30 (96.8%) out of 31 human isolates in Cairo, Egypt (Abdel Aaty 2012). Although the camel strain G6 is traditionally considered as less infective to humans (Santivañez 2008; Casulli 2010), recent molecular findings (M’rad 2005; Osman 2009; Adel Aaty 2012) as well as ours suggest that the prevalence of infection of this genotype may be higher than previously thought. Among the ten genotypes of Eceohinococcus granoeulosus (EG) recognized worldwide, only 5 strains were known to infect humans including G1, G2, G5, G6, and G7 strains (Table 4). The most frequent strain associated with human CE appears to be the sheep strain (G1) and the highest rates of infection are recorded in communities involved in extensive sheep farming (Grosso 2012). Sequancing of our samples revealed
Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) is a severe acute respiratory illness caused by the coronavirus named MERS-CoV. It is believed that the virus is found in camels and passed on to humans who are in contact or around infected animal. These camels are mainly located in Egypt, Oman, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia (WHO, 2015a). Those infected with MERS exhibit fever, cough, and shortness of breath, pneumonia, and diarrhea. Severe cases require patient to be put on mechanical ventilation or in an intensive care unit. It is also known to cause kidney failure and septic shock. The elderly, persons who are immunosuppressed, those who
Hendra virus (HeV) and Nipah virus (NiV) from genus henipa virus are zoonotic paramyxovirus; they can cause disease which is passed between animals and humans (1). Hendra virus was first detected in humans in Australia in 1994 with horses as intermediate host. Fruit bats of Pteropous species of Australian flying fox show serological evidence of early exposure to Hendra virus (2).
Infections of Eshericha do not require you to have personal contact with the effect cattle. As infections have occurred were a person has visited a site were the animal previously grazed. Other variety of food can also become contaminated an example of this is fresh produced such as lettuce, fresh spinach and radish sprouts. The produce would have become infected by growing in soil which was contaminated with fuces of cattle who were carry the disease. Unpasteurized milk, drinking water beef jerky and salami are also known to be capable of carry E.coli. As a result to have reduction of E.coli it must be controlled in cattle therefor improvement of cattle management practices are required these could include identification of inhibitory feeds, immunization, drenching and better utilization of feeding additives. Resherch shows that introduction of probiotic cultures may also reduce the level of E.coli in cattle therefor in
Introduction: Chlamydia Trachomatis is the organism responsible for diseases such as trachoma and the STD Chlamydia. Chlamydia is the most common STD in the United States, with about 4 million new cases diagnosed every year.
Esherichia coli also known as E. coli is a bacterium that lives in your gut. (1). it was founded by Theodore von Esherich in 1888. There are many people that can get the bacteria. Also there are thousands of strands of E.coli. Six E. coli O157 outbreaks were identified during 2007. Four of the outbreaks involved foodborne transmission. (Eshericha Coli). Six Minnesota cases and one Wisconsin case with the same or closely-related PFGE subtype of E. coli O157:H7, and an additional Minnesota case of Shiga-toxin producing E. coli that was not culture-confirmed, attended the Minnesota State Fair in August. All but one of the cases showed cattle or visited the cattle
The disease is caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis. It is mainly found in small rodents like rats and it can be spread to human through flea bites or via close contact with infected rodents or human.
by Yersinia pestis. Several species of rodents host this bacterium, usually contracted from flea bites. There
Differentiating the Eimeria spp. causing cecal coccidiosis in turkeys is challenging. To obtain benchmark biological data for Eimeria gallopavonis Hawkins 1952 and E. meleagridis Tyzzer 1929 and to support the stability of the species concept for each, genetically-typed, single oocyst derived lines of E. gallopavonis Weybridge strainand E. meleagridis USAR97-01 wereused to re-describe the biological, pathological and morphological features of these parasites.Oocysts of E. meleagridis and E. gallopavonis overlap in dimensions but oocysts of the former have a single polar granule compared with multiple in the latter. Mature first generation meronts of E. gallopavonis were observed histologically as early as 48 hours post infection alongside the villi in jejunum (before and after Meckel’s diverticulum), ileum, cecal neck and rectum, but not cecal pouches.
The overall objective of this research was to investigate the role of feral swine in tick-borne pathogens transmission in Texas. This discussion is a review of research over the ecology of the Plague bacteria (Yersinia pestis) and the lack of research or information. Y. pestis potential has to infect feral and domestic mammals. Currently out of 1415 known human pathogens, 38% are bacteria.
In this case I realized that individual has their differences to each other, especially by their beliefs, culture and habits in everyday life. Base on what I've understand that the clash of people inside a society is a norm because of the difference on their habit etc. And hyabitus is a habits of an individual considering their wants and
Hidradenitis Suppurativa also called acne inversa is a disease that affects most areas where oil and sweat glands are found. It can affect a single area or multiple areas of the body. At first it resembles a pimple or blackhead. This triggers for this disease are people who are overweight, smoke and women are three times more likely to get this disease than men. It usually develops when people hit puberty. There is not a definite cause of this disease, there are different factors such as hormones and an overactive immunity that play a role. Hidradenitis suppurativa most occurs in areas where skin touches skin, such as under your arms, genitals, under the breast and upper thighs. The early signs appear as a break out. Late signs are foul smelling
This drug has been used for more than 20 years, but there was limited information about how it performs throughout the body. In 2002, a study was conducted that resulted in three findings. Imidocarb dipropionate is effectively spread throughout the tissues, a prolonged period was required for complete elimination from the tissues, and it is fully sequestered in the vascular and extra vascular compartment. The liver reported to be the main source for storage of this drug. The disadvantages of using imidocarb are dose dependent hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity and rising levels of mortality and morbidity. It was unknown until the Texas outbreak whether horses could be ridden of infection completely, or if horses that had recovered could still carry the pathogen (Minamiji-Corp, 2013; Sumbria and Singla, 2015). The main objective to combatting this disease is to eliminate haemoprotozoan parasites from equines. T. equi is more difficult to fight off with babesiacidal drugs than B. caballi. In the past, dyes such as Trypan blue were used to thwart B. caballi, but not for T. equi. This dye would cause a discoloration of the animal’s tissues. Other drugs such as diminazene, diaceturate, imidocarb and amicarbalide are also effective in eliminating EP infections. Antitherilerial compounds, parvaquone and bupurvaquone have shown the
Dr. Bosley was chosen by the government of a North African Islamic republic to determine whether or not hydatid disease is a serious health problem. Hydatid disease is very infectious, and causes the development of large fluid-filled cysts located in the lungs, liver, and other organs. The disease is caused by the tapeworm Echinococcus, which lays eggs that will likely develop into cysts which pose a risk of a fatal toxic reaction if ruptured. Dr. Bosley was elected to conduct a survey of the distribution of the disease, of which he conducts unethically.
In response to these comments, it was then that the FDA added three additional pathogens to the list of qualifying pathogens: Coccidiodes species, Cryptococcus species, and Helicobacter pylori. Coccidiosis species, Cryptococcus species, and Helicobacter pylori. Coccidiosis is a disease caused by fungi from the genes of Cryptococcus that affect living organisms such as humans and animals. Living organisms usually contract this by inhaling the fungi, thus resulting in lung infection that can travel to the brain causing further harm for the organism. Two individuals were first identified with the fungus between 1894 and 1895. The Cryptococci’s can be found worldwide. The main way that disease is spread is also through inhalation with the particular fungus that happens to be associated with several species of bird, particularly old pigeon waste and bat guano.
We read with great interest a case report by Tosya et al. on isolated hydatidosis involving the ascending aorta [1]. Cystic hydatid disease still represents a neglected disease despite being highly endemic in a myriad of livestock-raising regions worldwide, and this case presentation makes evident how diverse the localization and clinical manifestations of this infection can be. With this comment, our aim is to extend the discussion by highlighting several important issues.
