Clostridium bacteraemia characterised by 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing.
BACKGROUND Owing to problems in accurate species identification of the diverse genus clostridium, the epidemiology and pathogenicity of many species are not fully understood. Moreover, previous studies on clostridium bacteraemia have been limited and relied only on phenotypic species identification. AIMS To characterise the epidemiology, disease spectrum, and outcome of clostridium bacteraemi...
متن کاملGlobicatella bacteraemia identified by 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing.
BACKGROUND Globicatella are streptococcus-like organisms that have been rarely isolated from clinical specimens. Their epidemiology and clinical significance remain largely unknown. AIMS To describe two cases of Globicatella bacteraemia identified by 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene sequencing. METHODS Two unidentified streptococcus-like bacteria isolated from blood cultures of patients were s...
متن کاملGemella bacteraemia characterised by 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing.
AIMS To define epidemiology, clinical disease, and outcome of gemella bacteraemia by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. To examine the usefulness of the Vitek, API, and ATB systems in identifying two gemella species. METHODS All alpha haemolytic streptococci other than Streptococcus pneumoniae isolated from blood cultures during a six year period were identified by conventional biochemical methods, th...
متن کاملNext-generation sequencing of 16S ribosomal RNA gene amplicons.
One of the major questions in microbial ecology is "who is there?" This question can be answered using various tools, but one of the long-lasting gold standards is to sequence 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene amplicons generated by domain-level PCR reactions amplifying from genomic DNA. Traditionally, this was performed by cloning and Sanger (capillary electrophoresis) sequencing of PCR amplicons....
متن کاملGroup G Streptococcal Bacteremia in Jerusalem
Group G Streptococcus (GGS) can cause severe infections, including bacteremia. These organisms often express a surface protein homologous to the Streptococcus pyogenes M protein. We retrospectively studied the characteristics of patients from the Hadassah Medical Center with GGS bacteremia from 1989 to 2000. Ninety-four cases of GGS bacteremia were identified in 84 patients. The median age was ...
