The clinical significance of Proteus penneri, a newly described species, is unknown. A case report is presented, which is to the best of our knowledge the first description of this organism causing a urinary tract infection and bladder calculi.
متن کاملA Tale of Two Novel Proteus Species- Proteus Hauseri and Proteus Penneri
We are reporting two different cases of two new Proteus speciesProteus hauseri and Proteus penneri isolated from two different patients. One case reports a one month old male child with history of diarrhoea since six days. His stool sample was sent for microbiological examination and the second case is of Ante natal care patient with urinary tract infection whose urine was send for microbiologi...
متن کاملHemolytic activity and invasiveness in strains of Proteus penneri.
Twenty strains of Proteus penneri obtained from the Centers for Disease Control, Atlanta, Ga., were tested for their ability to hemolyze sheep and human erythrocytes, a property that is thought to be connected with the invasiveness and virulence of Proteus species. In the logarithmic phase of growth, P. penneri cultures are hemolytic for such erythrocytes. This ability is comparable to the hemo...
متن کاملSwarming growth and resistance of Proteus penneri and Proteus vulgaris strains to normal human serum.
BACKGROUND Proteus sp. strains isolated from patients with urinary tract infection (UTI) are often insensitive to the bactericidal action of normal human serum (NHS) which poses a clinical problem. The swarming phenomenon is an especially important factor in cases of UTIs gained through the ascending route. Both these virulence factors are connected with the cell surface components of bacteria,...
متن کاملSerological classification and epitope specificity of Proteus penneri S29 lipopolysaccharide.
INTRODUCTION Gram-negative bacteria of genus Proteus are common human intestinal and urinary tract pathogens. In the genus Proteus there are four clinically important named species: P. mirabilis, P. vulgaris, P. penneri, and P. hauseri, and three unnamed Proteus genomospecies: 4, 5, and 6. The clinical significance of P. penneri, described in 1982 as a new species, is poorly documented. The aim...
