Corynebacterium striatus Keratitis
Cornea, 1991We report a case of diphtheroid keratitis that occurred in a compromised cornea. Corneal cultures yielded heavy growth of Corynebacterium striatus on blood and chocolate agar. The infection responded slowly to treatment with topical fortified cefazolin and fortified tobramycin.

Publisher Summary The growth of C. diphtheria occurs on the ordinary media, but it is more profuse on enriched media. One of the most satisfactory media in use is Loeffler's serum, which is prepared by adding 1 part of 1% glucose broth to 3 parts of sterile ox-serum and inspissating.

Corynebacterium xerosis Endocarditis
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1983Bacterial endocarditis due to Corynebacterium xerosis developed in a previously healthy person. Diphtheroid infection is a rare cause of endocarditis and, when present, it usually affects immunocompromised hosts or prosthetic valves. There are few reports of diphtheroid endocarditis on intact valves, and, to our knowledge, this is the first case in ...

Sexually Transmitted Diseases, 1977
Corynebacterium vaginale is a sexually transmitted organism which was first recognized in 1953. It appears to utilize glycogen stored in vaginal epithelial cells, causing a malodorous vaginal discharge characterized by an abnormally high pH (5.0 to 5.5) and composed mainly of epithelial cells and hordes of bacilli.

Promoters of Corynebacterium glutamicum
Journal of Biotechnology, 2003Regulation of gene expression in Corynebacterium glutamicum represents an important issue since this Gram-positive bacterium is a notable industrial amino acid producer. Transcription initiation, beginning by binding of RNA polymerase to the promoter DNA sequence, is one of the main points at which bacterial gene expression is regulated.

Corynebacterium diphtheriae Septicemia
American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1981This report describes the case of a patient with chronic lymphocytic leukemia in whom septicemia caused by a nontoxigenic strain of Corynebacterium diphtheriae developed. Numerous abscesses were present in sections of liver and spleen taken at autopsy.

Corynebacterium minutissimum infection
Journal of Infection, 1991Two cases of infection due to Corynebacterium minutissimum are described. On the basis of biochemical tests the organisms were thought at first to be Corynebacterium jeikeium. Methods of distinguishing between these species and the role of C. minutissimum in the pathogenesis of erythrasma and other skin infections are discussed.

The systematic application of next-generation DNA sequencing technologies has provided detailed insights into the genomics of corynebacteria. The genomes of 13 Corynebacterium diphtheriae strains isolated from cases of classical diphtheria, endocarditis and pneumonia were completely sequenced and annotated, providing first insights into the pan-genome ...

Laryngopharyngitis by Corynebacterium ulcerans
Infection, 2002A 71-year-old female patient was hospitalized with membranous laryngopharyngitis typical of classical diphtheria. A toxigenic strain of Corynebacterium ulcerans was isolated from the throat. The patient was treated for 6 days with amoxicillin-clavulanic acid and recovered without complications. This second reported case of diphtheric laryngopharyngitis
