Resident bacteria contribute to opportunistic infections of the respiratory tract.

PLoS Pathogens, 2021
Opportunistic pathogens frequently cause volatile infections in hosts with compromised immune systems or a disrupted normal microbiota. The commensalism of diverse microorganisms contributes to colonization resistance, which prevents the expansion of ...

First Case of Actinomycetoma in France Due to a Novel Nocardia Species, Nocardia boironii sp. nov

mSphere, 2016
Bacterial mycetoma is a neglected disease mainly observed in tropical area countries and typically associated with rural conditions, making its presence in developed countries of temperate climate areas rare.

Shining a Light on an Opportunistic Pathogen [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 2010
The surface of our planet is subjected to dramatic changes in levels of solar radiation on a daily basis. Sunlight is the direct energy source for photosynthetic organisms and is the foundation of most of the food chains that support heterotrophs like ourselves.

Bootstrapping opportunistic networks using social roles [PDF]

, 2011
Opportunistic routing protocols can enable message delivery in disconnected networks of mobile devices. To conserve energy in mobile environments, such routing protocols must minimise unnecessary message-forwarding.

Opportunistic pathogens enriched in showerhead biofilms [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2009
The environments we humans encounter daily are sources of exposure to diverse microbial communities, some of potential concern to human health. In this study, we used culture-independent technology to investigate the microbial composition of biofilms inside showerheads as ecological assemblages in the human indoor environment.

Moraxella catarrhalis as a respiratory pathogen

Indian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2011
Background: Moraxella catarrhalis is gaining significance as a pathogen over few decades because of increased rate of isolation in respiratory specimens and due to emergence of multidrug resistant strains.

Persistent Circulation of Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157:H7 in Cattle Farms: Characterization of Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 Strains and Fecal Microbial Communities of Bovine Shedders and Non-shedders

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022
Cattle are carriers, without clinical manifestations, of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157:H7 responsible for life-threatening infections in humans. A better identification of factors playing a role in maintaining persistence of such strains

Ralstonia spp.: emerging global opportunistic pathogens [PDF]

European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 2013
The bacterial genus Ralstonia (Gram-negative non-fermenters) is becoming more prevalent in cases of infection with three bacterial species, Ralstonia pickettii, Ralstonia insidiosa and Ralstonia mannitolilytica, making up all cases reported (in the literature) to date.
