High resolution typing of Chlamydophila psittaci by multilocus VNTR analysis (MLVA)Karine Laroucau
Bacterial Zoonoses Unit, French Food Safety Agency Afssa, 94706 Maisons Alfort cedex, France
Infect Genet Evol 8:171-81. 2008..The newly developed MLVA system therefore provides a highly sensitive, high resolution test for the differentiation of C. psittaci isolates from different origins that is suitable for molecular epidemiological studies...
Chlamydial infections in duck farms associated with human cases of psittacosis in FranceKarine Laroucau
Bacterial Zoonoses Unit, French Food Safety Agency Afssa, Maisons Alfort, France
Vet Microbiol 135:82-9. 2009..psittaci. Further analysis by MLVA of the PCR-positive human samples revealed two distinct patterns, which were related to previously isolated C. psittaci duck strains...
Genotyping of Chlamydophila abortus strains by multilocus VNTR analysisKarine Laroucau
Unité Zoonoses Bactériennes, Agence Française de Sécurité Sanitaire des Aliments Lerpaz, 94706 Maisons Alfort cedex, France
Vet Microbiol 137:335-44. 2009..abortus isolates of different origin, which is suitable for molecular epidemiological studies...
Isolation of a new chlamydial agent from infected domestic poultry coincided with cases of atypical pneumonia among slaughterhouse workers in FranceKarine Laroucau
Bacterial Zoonoses Unit, French Food Safety Agency, 94706 Maisons Alfort, France
Infect Genet Evol 9:1240-7. 2009..These data suggest that each farm had been infected with a different strain of this new chlamydial agent, the zoonotic potential and the exact taxonomic status of which have yet to be defined...
Differential identification of Chlamydophila abortus live vaccine strain 1B and C. abortus field isolates by PCR-RFLPKarine Laroucau
Unité Zoonoses Bactériennes, Agence Française de Sécurité Sanitaire des Aliments Lerpaz, 23 Avenue du Général de Gaulle, 94706 Maisons Alfort cedex, France
Vaccine 28:5653-6. 2010..Our results indicate that the three mutations are uniquely present in the vaccine strain, and as such provide easy-to-use markers for the differential identification of the vaccine strain and wild-type isolates...
Multiple-locus variable-number tandem repeat analysis for molecular typing of Aspergillus fumigatusSimon Thierry
ENVA, UMR BIPAR, Ecopham, Ecole Nationale Veterinaire d Alfort, Maisons Alfort, France
BMC Microbiol 10:315. 2010..The usefulness of MLVA was recently demonstrated for the avian major pathogen Chlamydophila psittaci. In the present study, we developed a similar method for another pathogen of birds: the filamentous fungus Aspergillus fumigatus...
