Apparent culture-negative prosthetic valve endocarditis caused by Peptostreptococcus magnus.
In two patients with prosthetic valve endocarditis due to Peptostreptococcus magnus, blood cultures in the BacT/Alert and BACTEC 9240 systems were signal negative. The capability of the BacT/Alert system to detect various Peptostreptococcus species was assessed. P. magnus and P. anaerobius could not be detected, and subcultures remained negative. The growth in conventional media of these two sp...
متن کاملInfection of a prosthetic knee joint with Peptostreptococcus magnus.
Infection of a prosthetic knee joint with Peptostreptococcus magnus in an immunosuppressed patient with rheumatoid arthritis is described. The organism is a skin commensal, generally thought to be of low pathogenicity; the difficulty in making the diagnosis is emphasised.
متن کاملImmunoglobulin-binding domains: Protein L from Peptostreptococcus magnus.
Protein L is a multidomain cell-wall protein isolated from Peptostreptococcus magnus. It belongs to a group of proteins that contain repeated domains that are able to bind to Igs without stimulating an immune response, the most characterized of this group being Protein A ( Staphylococcus aureus ) and Protein G ( Streptococcus ). Both of these proteins bind predominantly to the interface of C(H)...
متن کاملPhysical and genetic map of the Finegoldia magna (formerly Peptostreptococcus magnus) ATCC 29328 genome.
A physical and genetic map of Finegoldia magna (formerly Peptostreptococcus magnus) ATCC 29328 chromosome was constructed. The order of rare cleavage restriction fragments was determined by double digestion with the restriction enzymes I-CeuI, SgrAI, ApaI and PmeI, cross-hybridization and ApaI-linking clones. The size of the circular chromosome of F. magna was estimated to be 1.9 Mb. This strai...
متن کاملSpecific detection of Brucella DNA by PCR.
A PCR assay with primers derived from the 16S rRNA sequence of Brucella abortus was developed. Nine different combinations between six primers were tested. One pair of primers, which amplified a 905-bp fragment, was selected. As little as 80 fg of Brucella DNA was detected by this method. DNAs from all of the representative strains of the species and biovars of Brucella and from 23 different Br...
