Ralstonia Pickettii Bacteremia
As mentioned in literature R. pickettii has been reported to cause respiratory tract infections, meningitis, peritonitis and sepsis [1-4]. Transmission may occur due to contaminated medical devices or solutions generally encountered in health care facilities. R. picketti has been reported to cause outbreaks also [5].

متن کاملMetabolism of thioamides by Ralstonia pickettii TA.
Information on bacterial thioamide metabolism has focused on transformation of the antituberculosis drug ethionamide and related compounds by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. To study this metabolism more generally, a bacterium that grew using thioacetamide as the sole nitrogen source was isolated via enrichment culture. The bacterium was identified as Ralstonia pickettii and designated strain TA. C...

An altered intestinal microbiota composition has been implicated in the pathogenesis of metabolic disease including obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Low grade inflammation, potentially initiated by the intestinal microbiota, has been suggested to be a driving force in the development of insulin resistance in obesity. Here, we report that bacterial DNA is present in mesenteric adipos...
