Actinobaculum schaalii: identification with MALDI-TOF [PDF]

, 2014
Actinobaculum schaalii is an emerging uropathogen. So far, its identification has been performed with 16S rRNA gene sequencing or PCR. The diagnosis has often been delayed due to fastidious growth and identification problems.

Aerococcus urinae: Intraspecies Genetic and Phenotypic Relatedness [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1997
A number of Aerococcus-like organisms were recently recognized as human pathogens. Five Aerococcus-like strains were proposed as members of the new species Aerococcus urinae (with type strain E2 [= NCTC 12142]) on the basis of the results of a 16S rRNA sequence analysis. The intraspecies phenotypic and genetic relatedness of 22 selected A.

Aerococcus urinae in Urinary Tract Infections [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2000
ABSTRACT Aerococcus urinae is a rarely reported pathogen, possibly due to difficulties in the identification of the organism. A. urinae is a gram-positive coccus that grows in pairs and clusters, produces alpha-hemolysis on blood agar, and is negative for catalase and pyrrolidonyl ...

Identification of two abundant Aerococcus urinae cell wall-anchored proteins [PDF]

, 2019
Aerococcus urinae is an emerging pathogen that causes urinary tract infections, bacteremia and infective endocarditis. The mechanisms through which A. urinae cause infection are largely unknown.

Aerococcus urinae and Aerococcus sanguinicola:Susceptibility Testing of 120 Isolates to Six Antimicrobial Agents Using Disk Diffusion (EUCAST), Etest, and Broth Microdilution Techniques [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Aerococcus urinae and Aerococcus sanguinicola are relatively newcomers and emerging organisms in clinical and microbiological practice. Both species have worldwide been associated with urinary tract infections. More rarely cases of bacteremia/

Aspects of the antimicrobial susceptibility of Streptococcus pyogenes, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Aerococcus urinae [PDF]

, 2022
Streptococcus pyogenes and Streptococcus pneumoniae are important human pathogens capable of causing invasive infections which need antimicrobial treatment. Aerococcus urinae is a rare and relatively unknown causative agent in invasive infections but its

A case of aerococcus urinae vertebral osteomyelitis

Journal of Global Infectious Diseases, 2015
Aerococcus urinae is an aerobic, alpha hemolytic gram positive coccus bacterium that grows in pairs or clusters. We report the first case of vertebral osteomyelitis due to A. urinae. This has not been previously reported in the literature.

Mitral Valve Endocarditis with Perforation from a Urinary Source: An Unusual Case and Literature Review

Case Reports in Cardiology, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Aerococcus urinae (AU) is a rare pathogen, identified as gram‐positive, catalase‐negative coccus that grows in pairs and clusters which has been reported to mainly cause urinary tract infections (UTI), especially in elderly males. Treatment for this microorganism is usually with beta‐lactams although cultures with antibiotic susceptibility testing are ...

Candida glabrata: A Unique Cause of Necrotizing Urethritis

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Necrotizing urethritis is a rare malady with only one other case reported in the literature found to be due to an infectious cause. We report a case of necrotizing urethritis caused by Candida glabrata and review all relevant literature to date. The patient is a 56‐year‐old man with a past medical history significant for poorly controlled insulin ...
