Bacteroides gracilis, an important anaerobic bacterial pathogen.
Clinical isolates of agar-pitting, formate-fumarate-requiring, anaerobic gram-negative bacilli were recharacterized in consideration of the species descriptions of Bacteroides ureolyticus and the newly described B. gracilis, Campylobacter concisus, and Wolinella sp. During an 11-year period, 7.5% (101 of 1,341) of all specimens yielding anaerobes were found to contain an organism in this group....
متن کاملSelective medium for isolation of Bacteroides gracilis.
A new medium selective for Bacteroides gracilis was developed. The medium is tryptic soy agar (Difco Laboratories, Detroit, Mich.) containing nalidixic acid, teicoplanin, sodium formate, sodium fumarate, and potassium nitrate. All 18 strains of B. gracilis tested grew with only minimal inhibition. Most of the other 214 organisms tested, including most Bacteroides species, other anaerobes, and a...
متن کاملAlveolar Echinococcosis (AE) :An Important Neglected Foodborne Pathogen Threatening Community Health
Alveolar echinococcosis (AE) caused by Echinococcus multilocularis can infect humans as a dead-end host. They matured in canid’s intestine (e.g. foxes, jackals, wolves, dogs, cats, etc.). AE is seen across the world. It has a high prevalence in the central and northern parts of Europe, North America and Asia. The prevalence of AE was low in the past, even in hyper endemic regions. But in ...

متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of Erwinia tracheiphila, an Economically Important Bacterial Pathogen of Cucurbits
Erwinia tracheiphila is one of the most economically important pathogens of cucumbers, melons, squashes, pumpkins, and gourds in the northeastern and midwestern United States, yet its molecular pathology remains uninvestigated. Here, we report the first draft genome sequence of an E. tracheiphila strain isolated from an infected wild gourd (Cucurbita pepo subsp. texana) plant. The genome assemb...
