N-Formyl-Perosamine Surface Homopolysaccharides Hinder the Recognition of Brucella abortus by Mouse Neutrophils
(2016-06)
Brucella abortus is an intracellular pathogen of monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, and placental trophoblasts. This bacterium
causes a chronic disease in bovines and in humans. In these hosts, the bacterium also ...
Epidemiology of bovine brucellosis in Costa Rica: Lessons learned from failures in the control of the disease
(2017-08)

Thrombocytopenia and platelet hypoaggregation induced by Bothrops asper snake venom. Toxins involved and their contribution to metalloproteinase-induced pulmonary hemorrhage.
(2005-07)
Thrombocytopenia and platelet dysfunction occur in patients bitten by Bothrops sp snakes in Latin America. An experimental model was developed in mice to study the effects of B. asper venom in platelet numbers and function. ...
Arcobacter: Comparison of Isolation Methods, Diversity, and Potential Pathogenic Factors in Commercially Retailed Chicken Breast Meat from Costa Rica
(2014)
Arcobacter species have been recognized as potential food- and waterborne pathogens. The lack of standardized isolation methods and the relatively scarce knowledge about their prevalence and distribution as emerging pathogens ...
