Bordetella ssp. General Characteristics
Gram negative coccobacillus
capsule
motile with flagella
Bordetella ssp ALET
aerobic bacteria
extracellular bacteria
Natural habitat UR
Bordetella ssp.
B. Bronchiseptica (cats, dogs, pigs and rabbits
B. avium (birds)
B pertussus (humans)
Bordetella bronchiseptica characteristics
Canine infectious trachebronchitis, Can be primary but usually complex
B. bronchiseptica complex
viral component
stress component
B. bronchiseptica component
Mycoplasma
B. bronchiseptica virulence in cats is
similar to dogs
B. bronchiseptica transmission
inhalation contact with sick animals, sputum, water bowl, fomites
B. bronchiseptica natural environment
Natural flora, will usually culture from all animals, stress changes internal environment
B. bronchiseptica adherence
fimbria, tracheal colonization factor (exo), filamentous haemagglutinin, LPS (endo) - to ciliated epithelial cells
B. bronchiseptica virulence
Capsule - LPS - protects against phagocytosis via neutrophils and macrophages
Bordetella spp. exotoxins
a dermonecrotic toxin
tracheal cytotoxin
Bordetella spp pathogenesis
increased mucus, and fluid in UR, destruction of ciliated epith., depressed respiratory clearance mechanisms, reduced ability to remove or kill organisms
B. bronchiseptica, + P. multocida =
atrophic rhinitis
Atrophic rhinitis pathogenesis
B bronch. inital infection, P multocida joins and is osteolytic causing atrophy of nasal turbinates in pigs
Atrophic rhinitis is harmful because
it removes filtration before lungs
B. bronchiseptica without P. multocida results in
reversible turbinate hypoplasia
B. avium
Turkey coryza
direct contact, aerosolization, fomites, nasal exudate, conjunctivitis, trachael rales, dyspnea
Prevention of Bordetella
isolate animals with clinical signs, reduce predisposing/associated factors
B. pertussis virulence factors
same as other Bordetella with pertussis toxin
Bordetella zoonosis
NONE
Bordetella capsule protects the bacteria by
inhibiting phagocytosis and attachment of the outer membrane attack complexes of complement
Pseudomonas spp General Characteristics
Gram negative bacillus, non-spore forming, flagella
pili
Pseuduomonas spp. ALET
obligate aerobe
soil, water, feces, ubiquitous
Pseudomonas spp. Virulence factors
pili
capsular polysaccaride
LPS
Protease
Elastase
Biofilm
Pseudomonas spp. pathogenesis
opportunistic pathogen, rarely infects uncompromised tissue, resistant to antimicrobials, disrupts normal flora, breaches host defenses
Pseudomonas spp exotoxins
proteases
elastases
Pseudomonas aeruginosa typical contaminate locations
multidose mastitis treatments, instruments, hydorthearpy baths, semen extenders, liquid hand soaps - opportunistic pathogen
Pseudomonas aeruginosa diseases
mastitis, corneal ulcers, otitis externa, fleece rot,
Pseudomonas predisposing factors
wet, high humidity, disruption of skin integrity,
What bacteria causes similar disease to Pseudomonas?
Dermatophilus
Disease process of pseudomonas aeruginosa
breach defenses
adherence
exotoxin
endotoxin
proteases
Pseudomonas prevention, control and zoonosis
Hygiene
Zoonotic but opportunistic
Burkholderia spp. general characteristics
Gram negative bacillus
non-spore forming
non-motile
Burkholderia ALET
aerobic
facultative intracellular
Natural habitat- soil (most)
Burkholderia ssp
Burkholderia mallei - glanders in equine
Burkholderia pseudomallei - maliodiosis - zoonotic
Burkholderia mallei
reservoir - infected equidae
survives , 2 weeks in the set moist, dark environment
Burkholderia mallei - acute symptoms
fever, catarrhal nasal discharge respiratory, cutaneous, and lymphatic, nodular lesions, lymphadenitis of head and neck - death in 2 weeks
Burkholderia mallei - chronic symptoms
same as acute + mestastatic lesions in lungs and other organs - survive several years and infective
Burkholderia mallei transmission
highly contagious
ingestion common route, feed bunks, buckets, watering troughs, and buckets,
Burkholderia mallei virulence factors
toxins,
Burkholderia pseudomallei
fatal disease of humans, and other mammals, fever, maylgia, pneumonia, sepsis, abscess at point of infection but spreading everywhere, ingestion, inhalation, contact
Burkholderia spp. culture
blood and tissue
reportable
cull infected animals
