Characterization of some bacterial strains isolated from animal clinical materials and identified as Corynebacterium xerosis by molecular biological techniques.

Eighteen Corynebacterium xerosis strains isolated from different animal clinical specimens were subjected to phenotypic and molecular genetic studies. On the basis of the results of the biochemical characterization, the strains were tentatively identified as C. xerosis. Phylogenetic analysis based on comparative analysis of the sequences of 16S rRNA and rpoB genes revealed that the 18 strains w...

Nondiphtherial Corynebacterium Species Isolated from Clinical Specimens of Patients in a University Hospital, Rio De Janeiro, Brazil

Over a five-year period, 163 strains of Corynebacterium sp. were recovered from different clinical specimens of patients from a Brazilian University hospital. Genitourinary tract and intravenous sites specimens were the most frequent sources of corynebacteria (46.62%). Corynebacterium amycolatum (29.55%), Corynebacterium minutissimum (20.45%) and Corynebacterium pseudodiphtheriticum (13.63%) we...

Comprehensive study of Corynebacterium freneyi strains and extended and emended description of Corynebacterium freneyi Renaud, Aubel, Riegel, Meugnier, and Bollet 2001.

In 2001, Corynebacterium freneyi was described as a new fermentative, alpha-glucosidase-positive Corynebacterium species related to C. xerosis based on data from three strains. During a review of our extensive culture collection we encountered 18 additional C. freneyi strains and further characterized them in detail. Thirteen of the 18 strains were isolated from female genital tract specimens w...

Screening tests for the presumptive identification of Corynebacterium diphtheriae in a diagnostic laboratory.

We were concerned to read the recent article by Pennie et al. (7) on the misidentification of toxigenic Corynebacterium diphtheriae as a Corynebacterium sp. with low virulence in a child with endocarditis. The paper raises several issues relating to current methods for the microbiological diagnosis of diphtheria. Firstly, specific guidelines on laboratory diagnosis have been issued by the World...
