The clinical relevance of nosocomially acquired infections caused by multi-resistant Achromobacter strains is rapidly increasing. Here, a diverse set of 61 Achromobacter xylosoxidans strains was characterized by MultiLocus Sequence Typing and Phenotype MicroArray technology. The strains were further analyzed in regard to their susceptibility to 35 antibiotics and to 34 different and newly isola...

Congenital heart disease (CHD) and invasive cardiac procedures are risk factors for infective endocarditis (IE) in children. IE with Achromobacter xylosoxidans is a rare case has high mortality rate. This report literature review aim to understand the factors, diagnosis, therapy, outcome of wirh xylosoxidans. We observed 14-months-old boy ventricular septal defect (VSD), history catheterization...

The in vitro activity of cefoperazone against 380 strains (33 species and unnamed groups) of nonferenters and 20 strains of Aeromonas hydrophila was studied by a microdilution method of determining minimal inhibitory concentrations. For comparison, the activities of ampicillin, ticarcillin, and cefamandole were simultaneously studied. Cefoperazone was the most active drug against Pseudomonas sp...
