Occurrence of plasmids in "Campylobacter upsaliensis" (catalase negative or weak group) from geographically diverse patients with gastroenteritis or bacteraemia.
He was diagnosed with bacteremia with acute cholangitis due to Arthrobacter species, which are Gram-positive, aerobic, catalase-positive, coryneform bacteria belonging to the family Microbacteriaceae.
Helcococcus spp. are Gram-positive, catalase-negative, facultatively anaerobic cocci that are associated with wound and prosthetic joint infections as well bacteremia and empyema.Five Helcococcus spp. strains were isolated from our patient population, including 2 strains of Helcococcus kunzii from trauma-associated wounds, 2 Helcococcus sueciensis strains from blood and abscess, and a novel Helcococcus spp. strain from blood associated with urosepsis.
To investigate the ability of FDG/PET-CT to detect the site of infection and its clinical impact in bacteremia of unknown origin with catalase-negative Gram-positive cocci (excluding pneumococci and enterococci) or Staphylococcus aureus (BUOCSA).
