Central Venous Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infection by Corynebacterium striatum Identified by 16S rRNA and rpoB Gene Sequencing
Dear Editor Coryneform bacteria are gram-positive, catalase-positive, usually non-motile, glucose fermentative or non-fermentative, aerobic or facultatively anaerobic rods [1]. Several pathogenic Corynebacterium spp. have been identified, and nosocomial Corynebacterium infection has garnered substantial attention [2, 3]. For example, 281 cases of Corynebacterium infections associated with prost...
متن کاملPhylogenetic inference of Coxiella burnetii by 16S rRNA gene sequencing
Coxiella burnetii is a human pathogen that causes the serious zoonotic disease Q fever. It is ubiquitous in the environment and due to its wide host range, long-range dispersal potential and classification as a bioterrorism agent, this microorganism is considered an HHS Select Agent. In the event of an outbreak or intentional release, laboratory strain typing methods can contribute to epidemiol...
متن کاملSpecies-specific identification of Leptospiraceae by 16S rRNA gene sequencing.
The genus Leptospira is classified into 13 named species and 4 genomospecies based upon DNA-DNA reassociation studies. Phenotypic tests are unable to distinguish between species of Leptospira, and there is a need for a simplified molecular approach to the identification of leptospires. 16S rRNA gene sequences are potentially useful for species identification of Leptospira, but there are a large...
متن کاملIntravaginal microbial flora by the 16S rRNA gene sequencing.
OBJECTIVE Conventional diagnosis of bacterial vaginosis contains some controversial points. To understand accurately the relationship between clinical stages and the microbiotas, the intravaginal microbial flora was analyzed by the clone library method. STUDY DESIGN Vaginal fluid samples from 31 patients were examined. Lactobacillary grade, Nugent score, culture-based method, and clone librar...
متن کاملGlobicatella bacteraemia identified by 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing.
BACKGROUND Globicatella are streptococcus-like organisms that have been rarely isolated from clinical specimens. Their epidemiology and clinical significance remain largely unknown. AIMS To describe two cases of Globicatella bacteraemia identified by 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene sequencing. METHODS Two unidentified streptococcus-like bacteria isolated from blood cultures of patients were s...
