TL;DR: Isolates CCM 4915(T) andCCM 4916 could be clearly distinguished from all known Brucella species and their biovars by means of both their phenotypic and molecular properties, and therefore represent a novel species within the genus Bru cella.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brucella inopinata sp. nov., isolated from a breast implant infection.

TL;DR: Strain BO1(T) harboured four to five copies of the Brucella-specific insertion element IS 711, displaying a unique banding pattern, and exhibited a unique 16S rRNA gene sequence and also grouped separately in multilocus sequence typing analysis.

Chikungunya Fever in Travelers: Clinical Presentation and Course
Winfried Taubitz,Jakob P. Cramer,Anette Kapaun,Martin Pfeffer,Christian Drosten,Gerhard Dobler,Gerd D. Burchard,Thomas Löscher +7 more
TL;DR: Chikungunya fever must be considered in travelers who develop fever and arthritis after traveling to areas affected by an ongoing epidemic, as well as adequate preventive measures, such as protection against mosquitos.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emergence of zoonotic arboviruses by animal trade and migration
Martin Pfeffer,Gerhard Dobler +1 more
TL;DR: The known ecology of the mosquito-borne equine encephalitis viruses, as well as Tick-Borne Encephalitis virus and its North American counterpart Powassan virus are outlined, and the most likely mode that these viruses could expand their respective geographical range is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Franz Rubel,Katharina Brugger,Martin Pfeffer,Lidia Chitimia-Dobler,Yuliya M. Didyk,Sandra Leverenz,Hans Dautel,Olaf Kahl +7 more
TL;DR: The goal of this paper is to present up-to-date maps depicting the geographical distribution of Dermacentor species in Europe based on georeferenced sampling sites, resulting in 1286 D. marginatus (Sulzer, 1776) and D. reticulatus (Fabricius, 1794) locations.
