Genomic characterization, phylogenetic analysis, and identification of virulence factors in Aerococcus sanguinicola and Aerococcus urinae strains isolated from infection episodes [PDF]
Aerococcus sanguinicola and Aerococcus urinae are emerging pathogens in clinical settings mostly being causative agents of urinary tract infections (UTIs), urogenic sepsis and more seldomly complicated infective endocarditis (IE).

Aerococcus urinae, a rare cause of infective endocarditis. [PDF]
We present the case of an elderly male who was initially seen in our hospital for a urinary tract infection that was treated with oral ciprofloxacin. He was admitted 2 weeks later with altered mental status and fever, and was found to have bacteraemia with Aerococcus urinae. Owing to altered mental status a brain MRI was performed which showed evidence

Bactericidal activity of penicillin, ceftriaxone, gentamicin and daptomycin alone and in combination against Aerococcus urinae [PDF]
Aerococcus urinae can cause severe infections (bacteraemia and endocarditis) that are associated with high mortality. However, data on the bactericidal and synergistic activity for clinically implemented antibiotics are scarce.

Platelet activation and biofilm formation by Aerococcus urinae, an endocarditis causing pathogen [PDF]
The Gram-positive bacterium Aerococcus urinae can cause infectious endocarditis (IE) in older persons. Biofilm formation and platelet aggregation is believed to contribute to bacterial virulence in IE. Five A.

Evaluation of gradient diffusion in vitro susceptibility testing of Aerococcus urinae
Objective: Aerococcus urinae antimicrobial susceptibility testing can be performed via broth microdilution with Mueller-Hinton broth supplemented with lysed horse blood. We sought to compare this with the commonly used gradient diffusion method. Methods:

In vitro activity of clinically implemented β-lactams against Aerococcus urinae: presence of non-susceptible isolates in Switzerland. [PDF]
We analyzed the in vitro susceptibility to several ?-lactams and vancomycin of 80 Aerococcus urinae isolates col- lected during 2011-2012 in Switzerland. MICs were determined by Etest (bioMérieux) on Müller-Hinton agar with 5% sheep blood and interpreted

Urinary tract infections with aerococcus urinae in the South of the Nederlands [PDF]
Aerococcus urinae is an uncommon urinary tract pathogen that causes infections predominantly in elderly persons with local or general predisposing conditions. During a one-year study, the clinical features of Aerococcus urinae urinary tract infections (≤

Actinobaculum massiliense Proteome Profiled in Polymicrobial Urethral Catheter Biofilms
Actinobaculum massiliense, a Gram-positive anaerobic coccoid rod colonizing the human urinary tract, belongs to the taxonomic class of Actinobacteria. We identified A. massiliense as a cohabitant of urethral catheter biofilms (CB).
