Unusual Surgical Infections: Acinetobacter Septicemia
Two cases of Acinetobacter septicemia were diagnosed in Surgical unit 1 of Rawalpindi General Hospital with the help of the bacteriology department of Armed Forces Institute of Pathology (AFIP). One case presented as an acute abdomen secondary to a skin lesion while the second developed septicemia postoperatively. The former recovered due to the timely use of the right antibiotic while the latt...
متن کاملAcinetobacter junii as an aetiological agent of corneal ulcer
Rods of the Acinetobacter genus are present mainly in the external environment (e.g. water, soil) and in animals, while in humans they may comprise physiological flora. The main pathogenic species is Acinetobacter baumannii complex, which constitutes a common cause of nosocomial infections, particularly in patients with underlying diseases and risk factors (e.g. prior broad-spectrum antibiotic ...

متن کاملGenome sequencing and annotation of Acinetobacter junii strain MTCC 11364
The genus Acinetobacter consists of 31 validly published species ubiquitously distributed in nature and primarily associated with nosocomial infection. We report the 3.5 Mb draft genome of the Acinetobacter junii strain MTCC 11364. The genome has a G + C content of 38.0% and includes 3 rRNA genes (5S, 23S, 16S) and 64 aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase genes.
متن کاملBacteremia due to Acinetobacter genomic species 10.
Six patients with Acinetobacter genomic species 10 bacteremia were identified. The clinical features of the patients, phenotypic and genotypic identifications, antimicrobial susceptibilities, and genes flanking ISAba1 of the bacteria were described. The results revealed that this bacterium is a potentially lethal pathogen that can cause health care-associated infections in debilitated patients.
