   Prevalence and genetic characterization of <em>Anaplasma marginale</em> in zebu cattle (<em>Bos indicus</em>) and their ticks (<em>Amblyomma variegatum, Rhipicephalus microplus</em>) from Madagascar

   Relevance:

   Tick-borne bovine anaplasmosis, caused by the obligate intracellular pathogen Anaplasma marginale (Rickettsiales: Anaplasmataceae), is a major constraint to cattle production in tropical and subtropic

2. Multiple infections of rodents with zoonotic pathogens in Austria (Publications)

   Multiple infections of rodents with zoonotic pathogens in Austria

   Relevance:

   Rodents are important reservoirs for a large number of zoonotic pathogens. We examined the occurrence of 11 viral, bacterial, and parasitic agents in rodent populations in Austria, including three dif

3. Rapid identification of <em>Fusobacterium nucleatum</em> and <em>Fusobacterium necrophorum</em> by fluorescence in situ hybridization (Publications)

   Rapid identification of <em>Fusobacterium nucleatum</em> and <em>Fusobacterium necrophorum</em> by fluorescence in situ hybridization

   Relevance:

   Identification of clinically relevant Fusobacterium spp. is hampered by their slow growth, their frequent occurrence in polymicrobial culture, and the low reliability of biochemical differentiation me

   <em>Schistosoma mansoni</em> in schoolchildren in a Madagascan highland school assessed by PCR and sedimentation microscopy and Bayesian estimation of sensitivities and specificities

   Relevance:

   Madagascar is an endemic area for schistosomiasis, but recent prevalence data are scarce. We investigated stool samples of 410 children aged 4-18 years from a combined primary and secondary school in

6. Rapid detection of Brucella spp. in blood cultures by fluorescence in situ hybridization (Publications)

   Rapid detection of Brucella spp. in blood cultures by fluorescence in situ hybridization

   Relevance:

   Brucellosis is a severe systemic disease in humans. We describe a new 16S rRNA-based fluorescence in situ hybridization assay that facilitates rapid and specific detection of all human pathogenic spec

7. Superiority of molecular techniques for identification of gram-negative, oxidase-positive rods, including morphologically nontypical <em>Pseudomonas... (Publications)

   Superiority of molecular techniques for identification of gram-negative, oxidase-positive rods, including morphologically nontypical <em>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</em>, from patients with cystic fibrosis

   Relevance:

   Phenotypic identification of gram-negative bacteria from Cystic Fibrosis (CF) patients carries a high risk of misidentification. Therefore, we compared the results of biochemical identification by API

8. Fluorescence in situ hybridization for rapid identification of <em>Achromobacter xylosoxidans</em> and <em>Alcaligenes faecalis</em> recovered from... (Publications)

   Fluorescence in situ hybridization for rapid identification of <em>Achromobacter xylosoxidans</em> and <em>Alcaligenes faecalis</em> recovered from cystic fibrosis patients

   Relevance:

   Achromobacter xylosoxidans is frequently isolated from the respiratory secretions of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, but identification with biochemical tests is unreliable. We describe fluorescence in

9. Rapid identification of clinically relevant <em>Enterococcus</em> species by fluorescence in situ hybridization (Publications)

   Rapid identification of clinically relevant <em>Enterococcus</em> species by fluorescence in situ hybridization

   Relevance:

   A fluorescence in situ hybridization assay for the rapid identification of clinically relevant enterococci (Enterococcus faecalis, E. faecium, E. gallinarum, the VanC-type resistance group) was develo
