Fatal Respiratory Diphtheria Caused by ß-Lactam-Resistant Corynebacterium diphtheriae
, 2021 BACKGROUND: Diphtheria is a potentially fatal respiratory disease caused by toxigenic Corynebacterium diphtheriae. Although resistance to erythromycin has been recognized, β-lactam resistance in toxigenic diphtheria has not been described.

A SNP-based phylogenetic analysis of Corynebacterium diphtheriae in Malaysia
BMC Research Notes, 2018 Objective There is a lack of study in Corynebacterium diphtheriae isolates in Malaysia. The alarming surge of cases in year 2016 lead us to evaluate the local clinical C. diphtheriae strains in Malaysia.

The first case of septicemia due to nontoxigenic
Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials, 2005 Background Toxigenic strains of Corynebacterium diphtheriae are well known agent of diphtheria. Nontoxigenic strains can cause atypical course of the disease. Invasive diseases caused by C. diphtheriae occur very rare. Case presentation We have described
