Route of infections in bovine aspergillosis

Abstract

Repeated DNA sequences were used to fingerprint strains of Aspergillus fumigatus isolated from a cow with disseminated systemic aspergillosis, cows with single aspergillosis lesions, calves aborted due to bovine aspergillosis, mothers of those calves, and cattle without aspergillosis. The analysis of the Southern blot hybridization patterns obtained suggested that: (i) the portal of entry of aspergillosis in cattle is the gastrointestinal tract, and (ii) infection of aborted calves is due to maternally derived strains. Cattle from the same farm slaughtered on the same day harbour the same strain, suggesting a contamination from feed material.

Aspergillosis

Aspergillosis is the name given to a wide variety of diseases caused by infection by fungi of the genus Aspergillus. Aspergillosis occurs in chronic or acute forms which are clinically very distinct. Most cases of acute aspergillosis occur in patients with severely compromised immune systems. Chronic colonization or infection can cause complications in people with underlying respiratory illnesses. Discover the latest research on aspergillosis here.
