All animal, humans, insects, carpet, furniture, personal belongings, dirt, sand, toilets, pools.
When was Bartonella bacilliformis isolated?
The bacteria, Bartonella bacilliformis, was isolated by Alberto Barton in 1909, but wasn't identified as the cause of the fever until 1940.
How many bacteria species is in the Bartonella genus?
The Bartonella genus includes at least 11 bacteria species, four of which cause human diseases, including cat-scratch disease and bacillary angiomatosis. However, bartonellosis refers exclusively to the disease caused by B. bacilliformis.
Is lyme disease a fungi?
One funGUS, many funGI . . . No, Lyme disease is caused by the Bartonella spirochete. (Spy-row-keet), which is like a bacterium.

Name of bacteria that causes trench foot?
Bartonella quintana and Bartonella henselae.
What cause scratch?
Cat-scratch disease is caused by Bartonella henselae
What is the scientific name for cat scratch disease?
The scientific name for cat scratch disease is Bartonella henselae. It is a bacterial infection that can be transmitted to humans through a scratch or bite from an infected cat.
How common is the Bartonella henselae bacterium in cold climates?
Bartonella henselae is uncommon or absent in cold climates, which fleas have difficulty tolerating, but prevalent in warm, humid places such as Memphis, Tennessee, where antibodies were found in 71% of the cats tested.
What causes Cat-scratch disease?
Cat-scratch disease is caused by Bartonella henselae
How are people infected with cat-scratch disease?
Bartonella henselae can infect people who are scratched or (more rarely) bitten or licked by a cat.
What test will confirm a diagnosis of cat-scratch disease?
A blood test for Bartonella henselae may be ordered to confirm the doctor's diagnosis.
What is the portal of entry for Bartonella henselae?
All animal, humans, insects, carpet, furniture, personal belongings, dirt, sand, toilets, pools.
As Ted Nugent will tell you Bartonella henselae is a proto-bacterium that causes what condition known as bartonellosis?
Bartonellosis is a bacterial infection caused by Bartonella henselae. It is commonly known as cat-scratch disease because it is often transmitted through scratches or bites from infected cats. Symptoms typically include fever, swollen lymph nodes, and a skin rash.
What is the first stage in the development of Parinaud's oculoglandular syndrome in a cat with cat-scratch disease?
Researchers suspect that the first step in the development of Parinaud's oculoglandular syndrome occurs when Bartonella henselae bacteria pass from a cat's saliva to its fur during grooming.
Are brown cats scratches toxic?
They can be, and this is regardless of whatever colour the cat is.Cats carry numerous bacteria in their saliva, such as Bartonella henselae, and this can easily be conveyed to their claws when they wash. In addition, toxoplasmosis is a disease caused by the Toxoplasma gondii protozoan, which is present in cat droppings, and can be transferred to a cat's claws.
Does bacilli cause lyme disease?
Until around 15 years ago, only three human diseases were recognized as attributable to Bartonella organisms: cat scratch disease caused by B. henselae; Carrion's disease, caused by B. bacilliformus (and limited to South America); and trench fever, caused by B. quintana. Additional pathogenic Bartonella species have been discovered.Bartonella are intracellular parasites that generally show preference for erythrocytes and endothelial cells in humans. The organisms are found in a wide range of both wild and domestic mammals, including cattle, rodents, dogs and cats. The various Bartonella species appear to be adapted to specific hosts. Cats are the main reservoir for B. henselae, which causes approximately 20,000 reported cases of cat scratch disease per year in the United States. (As with many reportable diseases, however, the true incidence of CSD is underreported and generally believed to be considerably higher.) Bartonella are also found in numerous arthropods, including fleas (a known vector of CSD), biting flies, lice and ticks.
