Comparison of Norwegian poultry, waterborne and clinical isolates of Campylobacter jejuni by ribotyping
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009)Campylobacteriosis is the most frequently occurring food and waterborne gastroenteritis in Norway and 90% of cases are caused by Campylobacter jejuni. Campylobacteriosis is epidemiologically associated with use of ... -
Detection of tick-borne pathogens by molecular methods
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2008)The use of molecular methods such as species-specific PCR, Multiplex-PCR, RT-PCR, reverse line blot hybridisation in investigations of tick-borne pathogens allowed to detect and identify the causative agents of Lyme ... -
Diversity in prevalence and genospecies of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato in Ixodes ricinus ticks and rodents in Lithuania and Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2008)A total of 1679 questing Ixodes ricinus ticks collected in Lithuania and 535 I. ricinus ticks collected in Norway from locations with different habitats were investigated for the presence of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato. ... -
Diversity of thermophilic Campylobacter isolated from slaughter pigs in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2008)Out of 100 faecal swab samples, 88 thermophilic Campylobacter representing ten herds were isolated. The species were identified by biotyping and multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Of the isolates, 86 (97.7%) were ... -
Diversity of thermophilic Campylobacter isolated from the Bø River, Southeast Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009)Out of 125 samples we isolated 45 thermophilic Campylobacter spp. from Bø River by filtration followed by growth on selective agar plates. The species were identified by biotyping, multiplex PCR and riboprinting. C. jejuni ... -
Infestation with Ixodes ricinus ticks on migrating passerine birds in Lithuania and Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009)Ticks are known to carry several pathogenic agents of human diseases. To define the role of migrating birds as host and disseminators of ticks in Lithuania and Norway we analysed immature stage of ticks feeding on different ... -
Investigation of small rodents as reservoirs hosts of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato in Lithuania and Norway
(Conference object, 2006) -
Prevalence of Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Babesia divergens in Ixodes ricinus ticks from Lithuania and Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2008)We detected Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Babesia divergens in Ixodes ricinus ticks collected from different locations in Lithuania and Norway by using the Taq Man based real-time PCR method. The msp2 gene of A. phagocytophilum ... -
Similarity of Campylobacter lari among human, animal, and water isolates in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2008)A total of 49 isolates of Campylobacter lari from human, poultry, ducks, pigs, and water were genetically characterized. The species were identified by biotyping and multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Automatic ... -
