Population genetics of the nomenspecies Enterobacter cloacae.
The genetic heterogeneity of the nomenspecies Enterobacter cloacae is well known. Enterobacter asburiae, Enterobacter cancerogenus, Enterobacter dissolvens, Enterobacter hormaechei, Enterobacter kobei, and Enterobacter nimipressuralis are closely related to it and are subsumed in the so-called E. cloacae complex. DNA-DNA hybridization studies performed previously identified at least five DNA-re...
متن کاملBiotyping of Enterobacter cloacae.
A biotyping scheme for Enterobacter cloacae is proposed. Tests with seven substrates that gave reliable, reproducible results with 110 isolates of E cloacae formed the basis of the biotyping scheme which would allow recognition of 128 potential biotypes.
متن کاملGenomic Diversity within the Enterobacter cloacae Complex
BACKGROUND Isolates of the Enterobacter cloacae complex have been increasingly isolated as nosocomial pathogens, but phenotypic identification of the E. cloacae complex is unreliable and irreproducible. Identification of species based on currently available genotyping tools is already superior to phenotypic identification, but the taxonomy of isolates belonging to this complex is cumbersome. ...
متن کاملOutbreak of cephalosporin resistant Enterobacter cloacae infection
Enterobacter cloacae resistant to third generation cephalosporins emerged rapidly during an outbreak of serious infections due to this organism in a neonatal intensive care unit where ampicillin and gentamicin were used as first line antibiotic treatment. Organisms resistant to cephalosporins were isolated from 12 infants, six of whom developed systemic infection. Two infants died. Isolates of ...
متن کاملEnterobacter cloacae endophthalmitis: report of four cases.
Members of the genus Enterobacter are commensal organisms of the gastrointestinal tract and are considered pathogenic only for patients with lowered resistance to infection (e.g., chronic infection, cancer, or diabetes mellitus) or those with impaired immunity (congenital, acquired, or impaired immunity secondary to therapy). We report on four cases of endophthalmitis caused by Enterobacter clo...
