Septicemia due to a recently described gram-negative, spiral-shaped anaerobe, Anaerobiospirillum succiniciproducens, is presented. The biochemical characteristics and antimicrobial sensitivity pattern of this organism are reported.

Critically ill patients of intensive care units (ICUs) are at particular risk for developing nosocomial bloodstream infections. It is important to know the pathogens causing nosocomial bacteraemia in the ICUs and their antimicrobial sensitivity to formulate appropriate treatment guidelines. We conducted a study from July to December, 2001 in the ICUs of a tertiary care centre in northern India....

Antimicrobial resistance in porcine respiratory pathogens has been shown to exist inmany countries. However little is known about the variability in antimicrobial resistancewithin a population of one bacterial respiratory pathogen on a pig farm. This studyexamined the antimicrobial sensitivity of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae using multipleisolates within a pig and across the ...
