Corynebacterium striatum: A True Pathogen in Chronic Contiguous Osteomyelitis [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical MicrobiologyObjective/Purpose. Chronic contiguous osteomyelitis (CCO) is a well-recognized clinical condition. Causative factors include direct trauma, prior surgery, or underlying comorbidities like diabetes and vascular insufficiency. Staphylococci especially S. aureus, Streptococci especially beta-hemolytic Streptococci, Gram-negative bacilli, and anaerobes are

Identification and Evolutionary Relationship of Corynebacterium striatum Clinical Isolates [PDF]
Pathogens, 2022 Corynebacterium striatum has developed into a new community-acquired and hospital-acquired multi-drug resistance (MDR) bacterium, and is a potential target pathogen for infection control and antibacterial management projects. In this study, non-duplicate samples of inpatients were collected from a local central hospital.

Antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of Corynebacterium striatum [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1996 The in vitro activities of 16 antimicrobial agents against 86 strains of Corynebacterium striatum were evaluated by microdilution using cation-adjusted Mueller-Hinton broth. MICs at which 90% of strains were inhibited were 0.06 microgram/ml for teicoplanin, 1 microgram/ml for vancomycin, 0.03 to 8 micrograms/ml for beta-lactams, 8 micrograms/ml for ...
