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.

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 ...

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 ...

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

International 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.
