Characterization of Brevibacterium spp. from clinical specimens.
Nonfermenting coryneform bacteria identified as Brevibacterium spp. were isolated from routine clinical specimens. Four strains were derived from peritoneal fluid and has presumably been involved in the pathogenesis of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis peritonitis. Another five isolates most probably represented skin contaminants. Cell wall and lipid analyses confirmed the genus identif...
متن کاملIsolation of Brucella spp. from clinical specimens.
For recovery of brucellae from clinical specimens, a lysis-concentration procedure was superior to the procedure of Castañeda (M. R. Castañeda, Proc. Soc. Exp. Biol. Med. 64:114-115, 1947).
متن کاملAntimicrobial susceptibilities of Aeromonas spp. isolated from environmental sources.
Aeromonas spp. are ubiquitous aquatic bacteria that cause serious infections in both poikilothermic and endothermic animals, including humans. Clinical isolates have shown an increasing incidence of antibiotic and antimicrobial drug resistance since the widespread use of antibiotics began. A total of 282 Aeromonas pure cultures were isolated from both urban and rural playa lakes in the vicinity...
متن کاملPhenotypic methods for speciating clinical Aeromonas isolates.
AIMS To establish the suitability of currently available phenotypic methods for speciation of clinical Aeromonas isolates in diagnostic microbiology laboratories. METHODS Using 62 Aeromonas spp, three schemes based on biochemical reactions were compared: a series of conventional tests; a system based on the suicide phenomenon, comprising two tubes in total; and a commercially available test, ...
متن کاملPhenotypic characteristics of Aeromonas species isolated from adult humans.
The phenotypic characteristics of 89 Aeromonas strains, most of which had been isolated from feces, were examined. Eighty-two percent of the isolates could be placed into one of four groups on the basis of five tests. The relationship of these groups to the three motile species of Aeromonas (Aeromonas caviae, A. hydrophila, and A. sobria) that have been isolated from humans is unclear. Because ...
