2011-05-11ZeitschriftenartikelMolecular analysis of varicella vaccines and varicella-zoster virus from vaccine-related skin lesions. To prevent complications that might follow an infection with varicella-zoster virus (VZV), the live attenuated Oka strain (V-Oka) is administered to children in many developed countries. Three vaccine brands (Varivax from ...

2010-06-02ZeitschriftenartikelMutations in the M112/M113-coding region facilitate murine cytomegalovirus replication in human cells. Cytomegaloviruses, representatives of the Betaherpesvirinae, cause opportunistic infections in immunocompromised hosts. They infect various cells and tissues in their natural host but are highly species specific. For ...

2011-08-10ZeitschriftenartikelNovel adenoviruses in wild primates: a high level of genetic diversity and evidence of zoonotic transmissions. Adenoviruses (AdVs) broadly infect vertebrate hosts, including a variety of nonhuman primates (NHPs). In the present study, we identified AdVs in NHPs living in their natural habitats, and through the combination of ...

2013-06-01ZeitschriftenartikelNovel Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex Isolate from a Wild Chimpanzee Tuberculosis (TB) is caused by gram-positive bacteria known as the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC). MTBC include several human-associated lineages and several variants adapted to domestic and, more rarely, wild ...

2011-03-24ZeitschriftenartikelNuclear versus mitochondrial DNA: evidence for hybridization in colobine monkeys Background: Colobine monkeys constitute a diverse group of primates with major radiations in Africa and Asia. However, phylogenetic relationships among genera are under debate, and recent molecular studies with incomplete ...

2011-09-08ZeitschriftenartikelPasteurella multocida Involved in Respiratory Disease of Wild Chimpanzees Pasteurella multocida can cause a variety of diseases in various species of mammals and birds throughout the world but nothing is known about its importance for wild great apes. In this study we isolated P. multocida from ...

2013-06-11ZeitschriftenartikelProvenance and Geographic Spread of St. Louis Encephalitis Virus St. Louis encephalitis virus (SLEV) is the prototypic mosquito-borne flavivirus in the Americas. Birds are its primary vertebrate hosts, but amplification in certain mammals has also been suggested. The place and time of ...

2015-08-04ZeitschriftenartikelSpecies-wide whole genome sequencing reveals historical global spread and recent local persistence in Shigella flexneri Shigella flexneri is the most common cause of bacterial dysentery in low-income countries. Despite this, S. flexneri remains largely unexplored from a genomic standpoint and is still described using a vocabulary based on ...

2011-08-01ZeitschriftenartikelSpread of Measles Virus D4-Hamburg, Europe, 2008–2011 A new strain of measles virus, D4-Hamburg, was imported from London to Hamburg in December 2008 and subsequently spread to Bulgaria, where an outbreak of >24,300 cases was observed. We analyzed spread of the virus to ...

2011-12-23ZeitschriftenartikelThe phylogeny of yellow fever virus 17D vaccines In recent years the safety of the yellow fever live vaccine 17D came under scrutiny. The focus was on serious adverse events after vaccinations that resemble a wild type infection with yellow fever and whose reasons are ...

2015-05-11ZeitschriftenartikelWhat caused the outbreak of ESBL-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae in a neonatal intensive care unit, Germany 2009 to 2012? Reconstructing transmission with epidemiological analysis and whole-genome sequencing Objective: We aimed to retrospectively reconstruct the timing of transmission events and pathways in order to understand why extensive preventive measures and investigations were not sufficient to prevent new cases. ...
