Actinomyces and Alimentary Tract Diseases: A Review of Its Biological Functions and Pathology
BioMed Research International, 2018 Actinomyces are nonmotile, filamentous, Gram-positive bacteria that cause actinomycosis in immunodeficiency patients. Although the prognosis of actinomycosis is good, the diagnosis of actinomycosis is quite difficult. Recent studies on actinomycosis have
