Comparing the transmission of carbapenemase-producing and extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli between broiler chickens.

N. Dankittipong, J. B. Alderliesten, J. Van den Broek, A. M. Dame-Korevaar, M. S. Brouwer, F. C. Velkers, A. Bossers, C. J. de Vos, J. A. Wagenaar, A. J. Stegeman, E. A. J. Fischer

This study compares the transmission of carbapenemase-producing (CPE) and extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli between broiler chickens, finding CPE transmission rates were 52-68% lower than ESBL and chloramphenicol-resistant strains.

Chlamydia gallinacea: genetically armed as a pathogen however a phenotypical commensal?

M. Heijne, M. Jelocnik, A. Umanets, M. S. Brouwer, A. Dinkla, F. Harders, L. J. van Keulen, H. J. Roest, F. Schaafsma, F. C. velkers, J. A. van der Goot, Y. Pannekoek, A. P. Koets

This study isolates and characterizes two new C. gallinacea strains, showing they induce mortality in chicken embryos but to a lesser extent than C. psittaci, and possess virulence genes suggesting conditional pathogenic potential.
