The presence of Capnocytophaga canimorsus and Capnocytophaga cynodegmi in companion animals in The Netherlands. This article reports about a research that is done to determine the presence of Capnocytophaga canimorsus and Capnocytophaga cynodegmi in companion animals in the Netherlands using a species specific PCR in combination with classic microbial isolation. Because of the high presence of the bacteria in the mouth of especially cats and dogs (respectively 21 and 19%) and the severe consequences of an infection for humans the risk of an infection with C. canimorsus is high. Therefore owners of cats and dogs should be informed about this risk especially if the owners belong to specific risk groups like elderly people, pregnant women, young children and immune deficient patients.
荷兰伴侣动物中犬咬二氧化碳嗜纤维菌和犬二氧化碳嗜纤维菌的存在情况。本文报道了一项研究，该研究通过物种特异性聚合酶链反应（PCR）结合经典微生物分离方法来确定荷兰伴侣动物中犬咬二氧化碳嗜纤维菌和犬二氧化碳嗜纤维菌的存在情况。由于这些细菌在猫和狗的口腔中大量存在（分别为21%和19%），且感染人类会导致严重后果，犬咬二氧化碳嗜纤维菌感染的风险很高。因此，猫和狗的主人应被告知这种风险，特别是如果主人属于特定的风险群体，如老年人、孕妇、幼儿和免疫缺陷患者。
