The changing pattern of fusobacterium infections in humans: recent experience with fusobacterium bacteraemia [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology and Infection, 2006
A retrospective study was conducted of 26 adult cases of fusobacterium bacteraemia that occurred between 1998 and 2003 at Center Hospitalier Universitaire de Grenoble, France. Most patients presented with pre-existing adverse medical conditions, including evolving malignant diseases (eight patients), recent surgery (four patients), and chronic organ ...

Fusobacterium Bacteremia in the Newborn

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1965
Introduction THE Fusobacterium species, although normal inhabitants of the intestinal tract, occasionally give rise to blood-stream infections. An example of a fairly rare occurrence in the neonatal period is reported. Report of a Case A male infant had been born after a short, uncomplicated delivery on Sept 11, 1964. He weighed 7 lb 6½ oz (3.36 kg),

Characteristics of Fusobacterium ulcerans, a New and Unusual Species Compared with Fusobacterium varium and Fusobacterium mortiferum

Anaerobe, 1999
Abstract Fusobacterium ulcerans is a newly described obligately anaerobic Gram-negative, non-spore-forming rod [1] that has been isolated from tropical ulcers. Two morphotypes were described: one resemblingFusobacterium varium and the other Fusobacterium mortiferum[1].

The leukotoxin operon of Fusobacterium necrophorum is not present in other species of Fusobacterium

Anaerobe, 2005
The complete nucleotide sequence of the leukotoxin operon of Fusobacterium necrophorum has been determined. The operon consists of three genes (lktBAC) of which the leukotoxin structural gene is the middle determinant. Southern and western blot analyses and flow cytometry analysis for biological activity of the culture supernatants were carried out to ...

Characterizing prophages in the genus Fusobacterium

Anaerobe, 2023
We set out to identify and characterize prophages within genomes of published Fusobacterium strains, and to develop qPCR-based methods to characterize intra- and extra-cellular induction of prophage replication in a variety of environmental contexts.Various in silico tools were used to predict prophage presence across 105 Fusobacterium spp.

Postpartum Fusobacterium gonidiaformans bacteremia

Anaerobe, 2020
We present a case of a healthy 29 year-old female with an uneventful vaginal delivery who had transient, sudden onset of rigors and fever 36 hours postpartum. She was found to have Fusobacterium gonidiaformans bacteremia due to retained placental tissue. We report this organism as it is not well-described and rarely reported.

Characterization of shared antigens of Fusobacterium nucleatum and Fusobacterium necrophorum

Oral Microbiology and Immunology, 1992
Fusobacterium nucleatum and Fusobacterium necrophorum are gram‐negative, non‐spore‐forming anaerobic rods, frequently isolated from the normal flora and diseased lesions of the human oral cavity, gastrointestinal and genitourinary tracts. F. necrophorum is also known to be an animal pathogen. Studies were undertaken with rabbit anti‐F.

Rapid identification of Fusobacterium nucleatum and Fusobacterium necrophorum by fluorescence in situ hybridization

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2007
Identification of clinically relevant Fusobacterium spp. is hampered by their slow growth, their frequent occurrence in polymicrobial culture, and the low reliability of biochemical differentiation methods. A newly developed fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assay allowed reliable and rapid identification of Fusobacterium necrophorum and ...
