Isolation of Lautropia mirabilis from sputa of a cystic fibrosis patient.
An aggregate-forming coccus, isolated twice as the predominant microorganism in sputa from a cystic fibrosis patient on consecutive days, was shown to belong to the species Lautropia mirabilis on the bases of similarities of 16S rRNA gene sequences and phenotype. These isolates of L. mirabilis appear to be the first reported from a patient with cystic fibrosis and outside of Denmark.
متن کاملCellular fatty acid composition of Lautropia mirabilis.
Ten strains of Lautropia mirabilis (ATCC 51599(T) and nine phenotypically similar clinical isolates) were examined for cellular fatty acid (CFA) composition to evaluate their chemical relatedness to known bacterial species and groups. The CFAs were liberated from whole cells by base hydrolysis, methylated, and analyzed by gas-liquid chromatography. CFA profiles were generated by using a commeri...
متن کاملIsolation and Genetic Fingerprinting of Pseudomonas aeruginosa from Iranian Patients with Cystic Fibrosis Using RAPD-PCR
Sixty four Iranian patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) were studied for colonization with Pseudomonasaeruginosa. The patient’s age ranged between 2 months to 18 years old. Twenty one patients werecolonized, 15 with non-mucoid and 6 with mucoid strains of P. aeruginosa. The colonization rateincreased with age and the mucoid phenotype was only recovered from the older patients. A...
متن کاملAntibiotic Susceptibility of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Isolated from Cystic Fibrosis Patients
Abstract Background and Objective: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive genetic disease and Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the most common bacteria colonized in CF patients. Growing resistance of this bacterium to antibiotics now a day is a challenge of controlling infection in CF patient. In this study colonization of CF patients with Pseudomonas aeruginosa and antibiotic suscep...
متن کاملMolecular Detection of Multiple Emerging Pathogens in Sputa from Cystic Fibrosis Patients
BACKGROUND There is strong evidence that culture-based methods detect only a small proportion of bacteria present in the respiratory tracts of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Standard microbiological culture and phenotypic identification of bacteria in sputa from CF patients have been compared to molecular methods by the use of 16S rDNA amplification, cloning and...
