Infection Control, 1987
In 1888, Nocard isolated the microorganism responsible for a disease in cattle known as farcy. Eppinger, in 1890, isolated the same pathogen from man. With time, this aerobic gram-positive, partially acid-fast, branching rod became known asNocardia.

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1973
The virulence of Nocardia brasiliensis, N. asteroides, and N. caviae was investigated. The study was done by inoculation of these organisms into the footpad of white mice. The results show that N. brasiliensis has greater virulence than N. asteroides and N. caviae. These observations resemble clinical findings in which N.

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2009
Nocardia keratitis is a rarity in most parts of the world. If the diagnosis is timely, and appropriate treatment started, then the visual outcome is good. The purpose of this review is to discuss the recently published literature in relation to the epidemiology, cause, diagnosis, and therapy of Nocardia keratitis.The incidence of Nocardia keratitis ...

Update on Nocardia infections in solid-organ transplantation.
Current Opinion in Organ Transplantation, 2020PURPOSE OF REVIEW Nocardia is a ubiquitous pathogen associated with life-threatening opportunistic infections. Organ transplant recipients are uniquely predisposed to Nocardia infections due to their iatrogenic cell-mediated immune deficit necessary to ...

This chapter concentrates on the Nocardia species, which are soilborne bacteria that are aerobic and slow-growing. It describes Nocardia as thin, filamentous, beaded gram-positive rods that are variably acid-fast at 0.5 to 1.0 μm in diameter, with branching at right angles.

The mycobacteria are members of the order Actinomycetales and Family Mycobacteriaceae. Species of the genus Mycobacterium show some evidence of branching, are acid-fast, are resistant to treatment with alkali, contain large amounts of lipids in their cell walls, and are aerobic or microaerophilic. Their growth rate is usually slow (2–6 weeks); however,

Nocardia: A Geographic Prevalence
Archives of Dermatology, 1977To the Editor.— I wish to take exception to two points in a recent article that appeared in theArchives(112: 370, 1976). Having finally disposed of the archaic notions as to the nature of the beast, 1 we now have to be concerned with the epidemiology and the relative virulence of two of the nocardiae, N asteroides and N brasiliensis .

Biochemical Activities of Nocardia
1971Publisher Summary It seems almost inevitable that the microbiologist searching for new reactions and products will become addicted to a specific genus. This chapter is an attempt to bring attention to a group of microorganisms that are believed to have considerably more potential in microbial transformations than has previously been recognized.

Nocardia Asteroides Endophthalmitis
Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 1983SUMMARY A case of exogenous Nocardia asteroides endophthalmitis with impending corneal perforation was diagnosed by culture and successfully treated with vitrectomy, penetrating keratoplasty, and intraocular, topical, and systemic antimicrobial therapy. The patient regained excellent vision.
