Antimicrobial susceptibilities of Gardnerella vaginalis

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1993
The in vitro susceptibilities of 93 clinical isolates of Gardnerella vaginalis to 25 antimicrobial agents were determined by the agar dilution method. All isolates were susceptible to penicillin, ampicillin, erythromycin, clindamycin, chloramphenicol, and trimethoprim.

Gardnerella Vaginalis Bacteremia in a Premature Neonate [PDF]

Journal of Perinatology, 2002
Gardnerella vaginalis is a normal component of the human vaginal flora and commonly associated with bacterial vaginosis. Invasive infection in obstetrical patients due to G. vaginalis has also been reported. In the pediatric age range, infection due to G. vaginalis is extremely rare and limited to neonates. We describe a 23-week premature infant with G.

Pili on Gardnerella vaginalis studied by electronmicroscopy [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1987
Fourteen recently isolated strains and two laboratory strains of Gardnerella vaginalis were examined by electronmicroscopy for the presence of pili. All strains isolated recently from both men and women were heavily pilated. In contrast only a few pili were seen on organisms of the two laboratory strains, with many of the organisms having no pili.

Atopobium vaginae and Prevotella bivia Are Able to Incorporate and Influence Gene Expression in a Pre-Formed Gardnerella vaginalis Biofilm

Pathogens, 2021
Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is associated with a highly structured polymicrobial biofilm on the vaginal epithelium where Gardnerella species presumably play a pivotal role. Gardnerella vaginalis, Atopobium vaginae, and Prevotella bivia are vaginal pathogens

Laboratory diagnosis of gardnerella vaginalis vaginosis

West African Journal of Medicine, 2004
An evaluation of various laboratory detection methods and characteristics of Gardnerella vaginalis was made using high vaginal swab samples of 470 out patient clinic--attending women. Gram stain for 'clue cells' showed positive results in 118 (25.1%)cases; culture, in 100 cases, (213%) and Amine Odour (213%), in 26 cases 5.5%, Majority, 71 cases, of ...
