Phospholipids of Nocardia coeliaca

Phospholipids of Nocardia coeliaca.

The lipids of Nocardia coeliaca were separated into at least 10 components by the use of thin-layer chromatography. Phosphatidylcholine was the most abundant phospholipid in this organism, accounting for 25 to 40% of the total phospholipids. The major fatty acid components of the phosphatidylcholine were 14-methyl-pentadecanoic acid (41%), the other C(15) and C(17) iso- and anteiso-fatty acids ...

Nocardia pneumonia

Nocardia pneumonia is a relatively rare lung infection in Taiwan. It is usually related to contact with soil or contaminated water. A 39-year-old previously healthy man had a work-related fall resulting in multiple wounds and fractures as well as aspiration of river water and soil. His hospital course was complicated by facial necrotizing fasciitis due to aeromonas species and acinetobacter pne...
