Remote transient Lactobacillus animalis bacteremia causing prosthetic hip joint infection: a case report
BACKGROUND Lactobacillus spp. are uncommon pathogens in immunocompetent hosts, and even rarer causes of prosthetic device infections. CASE PRESENTATION A case of chronic hip prosthetic joint infection (PJI) caused by L. animalis is described. This occurred 5 years after a transient bacteremia with the same organism. Whole genome sequencing of both isolates proved this PJI infection resulted f...
متن کاملBacteremia and infection of a hip prosthesis caused by Bacillus alvei.
Of the 34 Bacillus species described, 10 have been reported to cause infection in humans and 6 are insect pathogens. We report a case of an infected prosthetic hip caused by Bacillus alvei, only the third documented case of human infection with this organism.
متن کاملIdentification of bacteria on the surface of clinically infected and non-infected prosthetic hip joints removed during revision arthroplasties by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and by microbiological culture
It has been postulated that bacteria attached to the surface of prosthetic hip joints can cause localised inflammation, resulting in failure of the replacement joint. However, diagnosis of infection is difficult with traditional microbiological culture methods, and evidence exists that highly fastidious or non-cultivable organisms have a role in implant infections. The purpose of this study was...
متن کاملOptimization of cholesterol oxidase production and 16S rRNA partial sequence of Bacillus cereus strain KAVK4 isolated from butter
Article history: Received on: 15/03/2016 Revised on: 20/04/2016 Accepted on: 30/05/2016 Available online: 28/07/2016 The aim of the present research work was to optimize cholesterol oxidase production and partial sequencing of 16S rRNA gene region of Bacillus cereus strain KAVK4 by PCR. Bacillus cereus is a gram positive bacterium isolated from butter, Tamil Nadu, India and was cultured in a nu...
متن کاملTwo distinct types of rRNA operons in the Bacillus cereus group.
The Bacillus cereus group includes insecticidal bacteria (B. thuringiensis), food-borne pathogens (B. cereus and B. weihenstephanensis) and B. anthracis, the causative agent of anthrax. The precise number of rRNA operons in 12 strains of the B. cereus group was determined. Most of the tested strains possess 13 operons and the tested psychrotolerant strains contain 14 operons, the highest number...
