Characterizing Plasmids in Bacteria Species Relevant to Urinary Health [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The urinary tract has a microbial community (the urinary microbiota or urobiota) that has been associated with human health. Whole genome sequencing of bacteria is a powerful tool, allowing investigation of the genomic content of the urobiota, also ...

Clinical Characteristics and Laboratory Identification of Aerococcus Infections: An Australian Tertiary Centre Perspective

open access: yesInternational Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017
Aerococci uncommonly cause urinary tract (UTI) and bloodstream infections (BSI). The clinical characteristics and laboratory identification rates of Aerococcus in the Australian context are unknown. A retrospective observational cohort study of patients with positive Aerococcus cultures between 2010 and 2015 was performed.

Advantages and Limitations of Direct PCR Amplification of Bacterial 16S‐rDNA from Resected Heart Tissue or Swabs Followed by Direct Sequencing for Diagnosing Infective Endocarditis: A Retrospective Analysis in the Routine Clinical Setting

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Infective endocarditis (IE) is a life‐threatening disease that is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Its long‐term prognosis strongly depends on a timely and optimized antibiotic treatment. Therefore, identification of the causative pathogen is crucial and currently based on blood cultures followed by characterization and susceptibility ...
