A case of sepsis with multi-organ failure from a community-acquired Acinetobacter junii bacteremia in an immunocompetent patient [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The Acinetobacter (A.) genus is a group of Gram-negative bacilli which mainly cause nosocomial infections or infections in immunocompromised patients. A. baumannii is the most common agent of human infection, and A. junii represents less than

We performed 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolite profiling for three sympatric lizard species—Teratoscincus roborowskii, Phrynocephalus axillaris, and Eremias roborowskii—and compared their goblet cell and enzyme activities in the digestive tract. Our study suggests that the dietary niche may promote divergence or convergence of microbiota across host ...
