Rickettsia typhi infection in a clinically-ill dog from Houston, Texas

VETERINARY PARASITOLOGY- REGIONAL STUDIES AND REPORTS, 35.

By: N. Juhasz n, J. Wilson n, K. Haney n, M. Clark*, A. Davenport*, E. Breitschwerdt n , B. Qurollo n 

author keywords: Dog; Rickettsia typhi; Murine typhus; North America
MeSH headings : Animals; Dog Diseases / diagnosis; Dog Diseases / drug therapy; Dogs; Doxycycline / therapeutic use; Polymerase Chain Reaction / veterinary; Rickettsia typhi; Texas; Typhus, Endemic Flea-Borne / diagnosis; Typhus, Endemic Flea-Borne / drug therapy; Typhus, Endemic Flea-Borne / veterinary
TL;DR: In 2020, Rickettsia typhi was diagnosed in a dog from Houston, Texas, USA based upon R. typhi IFA seroreactivity in both acute and convalescent sera, and PCR with DNA sequencing of 4 different gene regions, all of which were 100% identical to R. Typhi. (via Semantic Scholar)

Evaluation of a commercial microbial enrichment kit used prior DNA extraction to improve the molecular detection of vector-borne pathogens from naturally infected dogs

JOURNAL OF MICROBIOLOGICAL METHODS, 188.

By: K. Oney*, M. Koo*, C. Roy *, S. Ren*, B. Qurollo n , N. Juhasz n, E. Vasconcelos *, B. Oakley *, P. Diniz *

author keywords: Tick-borne disease; 16S rRNA gene; Next-generation sequencing; Real-time PCR; MolYsis; Anaplasma phagocytophilum; Ehrlichia ewingii; Microbial community; DNA extraction
MeSH headings : Anaplasma / genetics; Anaplasma phagocytophilum; Animals; Bacteria / genetics; DNA, Bacterial / isolation & purification; DNA, Protozoan / isolation & purification; Dog Diseases / diagnosis; Dogs; Ehrlichia / genetics; High-Throughput Nucleotide Sequencing; Microbiota; Polymerase Chain Reaction; RNA, Ribosomal, 16S / genetics; RNA, Ribosomal, 18S / genetics; Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction; Tick-Borne Diseases; Vector Borne Diseases / diagnosis; Vector Borne Diseases / microbiology; Vector Borne Diseases / parasitology
TL;DR: Results from the three molecular methods suggest that the microbial concentrating kit did not improve the detection of VBPs, although significantly reduced the presence of host DNA. (via Semantic Scholar)
