Amoebal pathogens as emerging causal agents of pneumonia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Despite using modern microbiological diagnostic approaches, the aetiological agents of pneumonia remain unidentified in about 50% of cases. Some bacteria that grow poorly or not at all in axenic media used in routine clinical bacteriology laboratory but ...
