Characterization of Pseudomonas species isolated from clinical specimens.
More than 90 morphological and physiological characters of 227 strains of pseudomonads isolated from clinical specimens and 16 reference strains are described. The clinical isolates included P. aeruginosa (apyocyanogenic), P. fluorescens, P. putida, P. pseudomallei, P. cepacia, P. acidovorans, P. alcaligenes, P. pseudoalcaligenes, P. stutzeri, P. putrefaciens, P. maltophilia, and P. diminuta.
متن کاملMolecular identification and susceptibility of Trichosporon species isolated from clinical specimens in Qatar: isolation of Trichosporon dohaense Taj-Aldeen, Meis & Boekhout sp. nov.
Trichosporon species have been reported as emerging pathogens and usually occur in severely immunocompromised patients. In the present work, 27 clinical isolates of Trichosporon species were recovered from 27 patients. The patients were not immunocompromised, except for one with acute myeloid leukemia. Sequence analysis revealed the isolation of Trichosporon dohaense Taj-Aldeen, Meis & Boekhout...
متن کاملSpecies identities of enterococci isolated from clinical specimens.
Conventional tests and commercially available systems were used to determine the species identities of clinical isolates of enterococci. Strict adherence to the conventional test scheme of Facklam and Collins (R. R. Facklam and M. D. Collins, J. Clin. Microbiol. 27:731-734, 1989) resulted in the misidentification of lactose-negative Enterococcus faecalis isolates as Enterococcus solitarius, but...
متن کاملPhenotypic and molecular characterization of Candida dubliniensis isolates from clinical specimens in Kuwait.
OBJECTIVE This study was carried out to characterize Candida dubliniensis using phenotypic and molecular methods and to determine the occurrence of C. dubliniensis in clinical specimens in Kuwait. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 880 clinical specimens for isolation of fungi were processed according to standard procedures. Of these, 390 germ-tube-positive clinical isolates of Candida species ...
متن کاملMolecular characterization of nitroimidazole resistance in metronidazole-resistant bacteroides species isolated from hospital patients in Kuwait.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to screen for infections caused by metronidazole (MTZ)-resistant Bacteroides spp., and to characterize the genes that encode the MTZ resistance. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 7 MTZ-resistant Bacteroides spp. were isolated from 5 patients with MTZ-resistant infections. These organisms were investigated for carriage of genes that encode MTZ resistance. Th...
