Isolation of Serratia plymuthica from a human burn site.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The saprophytic bacterium Serratia plymuthica was recovered from a facial wound (burn) site of a pediatric patient. The clinical significance of the organism was undetermined due to its apparent eradication from this location by therapy with topical 1% silver sulfadiazine. Seeding of the burn with S. plymuthica may have occurred from contaminated moisture sometimes found on and around steam radiators.

Report of six cases of human infection by Serratia plymuthica.
Serratia plymuthica is an uncommon cause of human infection. Only one case of chronic osteomyelitis and two cases of sepsis secondary to central venous catheter infection have been documented. We report the isolation of S. plymuthica from six patients. The organism was recovered from blood cultures in three cases in which the patients had lymphoblastic leukemia, lymphoma, or stroke. Two isolate...
متن کاملIsolation of CB-25-I, an antifungal antibiotic, from Serratia plymuthica.
A new antifungal antibiotic, CB-25-I, was isolated from the culture broth of a strain of Serratia plymuthica. The antibiotic, a water-soluble dipeptide, is structurally related to Sch 37137 and A 19009, both produced by strains of Actinomycetales. The antibiotic exhibits inhibitory activity against Candida albicans in YNB medium (a synthetic medium), but the activity is significantly reduced in...
متن کاملDraft genome sequence of the antagonistic rhizosphere bacterium Serratia plymuthica strain PRI-2C.
Serratia plymuthica strain PRI-2C is a rhizosphere bacterial strain with antagonistic activity against different plant pathogens. Here we present the 5.39-Mb (G+C content, 55.67%) draft genome sequence of S. plymuthica strain PRI-2C with the aim of providing insight into the genomic basis of its antagonistic activity.
متن کاملGenome Sequence of Serratia plymuthica Strain S13, an Endophyte with Germination- and Plant-Growth-Promoting Activity from the Flower of Styrian Oil Pumpkin
The bacterium Serratia plymuthica strain S13 was demonstrated to colonize various plant-associated microhabitats and to suppress damping-off diseases. The completed genome sequence has a size of 5.5 Mb, containing 4,957 putative protein-encoding regions, and will be used to identify genetic determinants enabling the bacterium to escort a plant's entire life cycle.
