Corynebacterium species isolated from bone and joint infections identified by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis.

چکیده
By the use of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis we identified 28 of 31 Corynebacterium spp. isolated from bone and joint infections, including species never before isolated in such infections. Phenotypic analysis led to the correct identification of 8 of 31. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis appears to be a good technique for identification of clinical strains of Corynebacterium spp.

Identification of Bifidobacterium Strains Isolated from Fecal Samples of Some Iranian Subjects Using 16SrRNA Gene Sequence Analysis and PCR-based Gene Specific Primers
For the first time in Iran 40 strains of Bifidobacterium were isolated from feces of Iranian subjects. By using phenotypic tests, 18 isolates were identified as Bifidobacterium longum, 10 as Bifidobacterium bifidum and one as Bifidobacterium catenolatum. In order to validate these results and also to identify other isolates that had not been identified by phenotypic tests, two methods of PCR wi...
متن کاملThe Isolation and Identification of Dominant Lactic Acid Bacteria by the Sequencing of the 16S rRNA in Traditional Cheese (Khiki) in Semnan, Iran
Background: Identification of the dominant lactic acid bacteria involved in the production of traditional cheese in Semnan could be the initiative to protect national genetic resources and produce industrial cheese with desirable texture and organoleptic characteristics similar to traditional cheeses. The present study aimed to determine the biochemical, physiological, and phenotypic properties...
متن کاملIdentification of Nontuberculous Mycobacteria Species Isolated from Water Samples Using Phenotypic and Molecular Methods and Determination of their Antibiotic Resistance Patterns by E- Test Method, in Isfahan, Iran
Introduction Many studies have shown epidemiological links between strains isolated in tap water, and those isolated from patients. Molecular methods linked to PCR are more reliable and faster for identification of non- tuberculous mycobacteria(NTM). In this study molecular methods were used for identification and typing of NTM. Materials and Methods Five hundred ml of 85 water ...
متن کاملMolecular Detection of Novel Genetic Variants Associated to Anaplasma ovis among Dromedary Camels in Iran
To the best of our knowledge, little information is available regarding the presence of Anaplasma species in camels in Iran. This study sought to investigate the presence of Anaplasma species by microscopy and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays in 100 healthy dromedaries (Camelus dromedarius) arriving for slaughter. The microscopic examination of Giemsa-stained blood films revealed that Ana...
متن کاملStructure and organization of the rrnD operon of 'Brevibacterium lactofermentum': analysis of the 16S rRNA gene.
Five rRNA operons (rrn) were found by hybridization in the genome of 'Brevibacterium lactofermentum' ATCC 13869 and Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 13032. 'B. lactofermentum' DSM 20412 differed from the other corynebacteria tested in showing six hybridizing BamHI bands. Two of the rrn operons (rrnD and rrnE) were located in a single cosmid. Sequencing of the rrnD operon showed that it contains ...
