On behalf of my coauthors, I am pleased to share our recent publication in the Emerging Infectious Diseases.
Duarte-Benvenuto A, Sacristán C, Ewbank A, Sacristán I, Zamana-Ramblas R, Gravena W, et al. Hemotropic Mycoplasma spp. in Aquatic Mammals, Amazon Basin, Brazil. Emerg Infect Dis. 2022;28(12):2556-2559. https://doi.org/10.3201/eid2812.220971 Abstract: Hemotropic *Mycoplasma* spp. (hemoplasmas) are uncultivable bacteria that infect mammals, including humans. We detected a potentially novel hemoplasma species in blood samples from wild river dolphins in the Amazon River Basin, Brazil. Further investigation could determine pathogenicity and zoonotic potential of the detected hemoplasma.
