Bacteremia and adrenal gland abscess due to Nocardia cyriacigeorgica: a case report and review
Background Nocardia cyriacigeorgica is one of the most common Nocardia species found in human infections, recently reclassified. Even though Nocardia may affect all organs by hematogenous dissemination, bacteremia are uncommon.

Digital Image Analysis of Actinomycetes Colonies as a Potential Aid for Rapid Taxonomic Identification [PDF]
High frequency isolation of actinomycetes poses a challenge for the taxonomists hence simple and rapid identification methods are required. Our work to catalogue biodiversity of actinomycetes of Goa yielded several distinct morphotypes.

Nocardia abscessus brain abscess in an immunocompetent host
Summary: Nocardia brain abscesses typically occur in immunocompromised patients. Most cases of nocardiosis are caused by the Nocardia asteroides complex and Nocardia brasiliensis. Here, we present a patient with a Nocardia abscessus brain abscess.

Gut microbiota of migrating wild rabbit fish (Siganus guttatus) larvae have low spatial and temporal variability [PDF]
We investigated the gut microbiota of rabbit fish larvae at three locations in Vietnam (ThuanAn-northern, QuangNam-intermediate, BinhDinh-southern sampling site) over a three-year period. In the wild, the first food for rabbit fish larvae remains unknown,
