Isolation of Enterococcus mundtii from normally sterile body sites in two patients.

چکیده
Enterococcus mundtii, a recently described nonmotile, yellow-pigmented enterococcal species, was isolated from a chronic thigh abscess and from operatively obtained sinus mucosa. It is emphasized that this species may be encountered in clinical specimens and that the correct species identification may be missed when commercially available identification systems are relied on.

The number of fishes were conducted a series of bacteriological examinations to confirm the clinical symptoms that appeared and led to streptococcal infection. Results of the external examination from two moribund red tilapia found the hemorrhagic traces in some parts of the body such as the cranial area near the mouth, eyes, operculum, and some body parts and erosion on the tail, pectoral, and...
متن کاملPrimary and secondary structures of rRNA spacer regions in enterococci.
The 16S-23S and 23S-5S rRNA spacer DNA regions (spacer regions 1 and 2, respectively) from Enterococcus faecalis, Enterococcus faecium, Enterococcus hirae, Enterococcus durans and Enterococcus mundtii were amplified by PCR. Their nucleotide sequences were established and a secondary structure model showing the interaction between the two spacer regions was built. Whereas lactococci and Streptoc...
