Identification of Nonfermenting Gram-negative Bacilli in the Clinical Laboratory.
Much has been written and said in recent years regarding the classification and significance of the Enterobacteriaceae. These organisms, without a doubt, exceed all other gram-negative bacteria as etiologic agents of disease, and because of their predominance they have deserved the attention that they have received. With the emphasis placed on these fermenting bacteria, however, a dearth of inf...
متن کاملTransmission of nonfermenting gram-negative bacilli by multiple-dose inhalers.
The description by Cheron et al. (1) of an outbreak of hospital-acquired infections due toAlcaligenes denitnfi cans and other nonfermenting gram-negative bacilli was reminiscent of a similar outbreak at our hospital. During a 1-month period there were 11 cases of mixed bacterial infections involving Acinetobacter anitratus, Flavobacterium meningosepticum, and Xanthomonas maltophila in our 15-be...
متن کاملGlucose-nonfermenting Gram-negative bacilli associated with clinical veterinary specimens.
Glucose-nonfermenting gram-negative bacilli (NFB) have been recognized recently as opportunistic pathogens of humans. With few exceptions, strains of NFB have not been considered important enough to be identified when isolated from animals. In this study, all NFB isolated during a 1-year period in a clinical veterinary microbiology laboratory were identified to determine their prevalence. Of th...
متن کاملGRAM NEGATIVE BACILLI IN BURNS
In a period of nine months, 225 strains of Gram-negative bacilli isolated from burns were identified by a variety of tests in two burn centers in Tehran. The most common species were Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Escherichia coli, Enterobacter agglomerans, Enterobacter cloacae and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Many strains of acinetobacter spp, providencia spp, proteus spp, ser...
