AbstractBovine mastitis caused byStreptococcus agalactiaeis mainly subclinical and therefore can be diagnosed only in the laboratory.

The general streptococci primers, which anneal to conserved areas within the 16S rRNA subunit gene, were used as positive controls. The specificity ofS. agalactiaeprimers is based on various areas within conserved areas of the 16S rRNA genes ofS. agalactiae. Results have indicated that the method enables the detection of 1 C

Abstract:
Contagious agalactia (CA) is suspected when small ruminants show all or several of the following clinical signs: mastitis, arthritis, keratoconjunctivitis and occasionally abortion. It is confirmed following mycoplasma isolation or detection. The historical and major cause is Mycoplasma agalactiae which was first isolated from sheep in 1923. Over the last thirty years, three other mycoplasmas (Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. capri, Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. capricolum and Mycoplasma putrefaciens) have been added to the etiology of CA because they can occasionally cause clinically similar outcome

The aim of this work was to evaluate the effects of beneficial human vaginal lactobacilli (Lb) on urogenital pathogens through in vitro and in vivo experiments. Co-aggregative and antimicrobial properties between five vaginal Lb strains and urogenital pathogens or potential pathogens (Streptococcus agalactiae, Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans strains) were assayed. Also, associative cultures of Lb strains and S. agalactiae were performed and bacterial growth, pH, lactic acid and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) were determined at different times.

Abstract:
SUMMARY Streptococcus agalactiae (group B Streptococcus) is the major cause of invasive bacterial disease, including meningitis, in the neonatal period. Although prophylactic measures have contributed to a substantial reduction in the number of infections, development of a vaccine remains an important goal. While much work in this field has focused on the S. agalactiae polysaccharide capsule, which is an important virulence factor that elicits protective immunity, surface proteins have received increasing attention as potential virulence factors and vaccine components.

The phylogenically related Mycoplasma agalactiae and Mycoplasma bovis species are two ruminant pathogens difficult to differentiate and for which a limited amount of sequence data are available. To assess the degree of genomic diversity existing between and within these mycoplasma species, sets of DNA fragments specific for M. bovis type-strain PG45 or for M. agalactiae type-strain PG2 were isolated by suppression subtractive hybridization and used as probes on a panel of M. agalactiae and M. bovis field isolates.

When the prevalence of disease is low, these erroneous results may generate problems for eradication schemes. To prevent this, 2 commercial ELISAs were compared with the AFSSA ELISA.

The genetic relationship between Streptococcus agalactiae and Streptococcus difficilis was studied. S. difficilis was originally described as serologically non-typable but was later reported to be a group B, type Ib streptococcus. Upon comparative analysis of five gene sequences, it was found that S. agalactiae and S. difficilis are closely related. Sequence similarity values between these two species were 100·0 % for 16S rRNA, 99·6 % for gyrB, 98·6 % for sodA, 99·5 % for gyrA and 99·8 % for parC genes.
