An Unforeseen Offender: Rhizobium radiobacter Bacteremia in Catheterized Patients
Catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSIs) are a major cause of morbidity in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. We report the case of a 19-year-old female with bilateral grade IV CKD and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis via a right internal jugular vein (IJV) catheter, who presented with ...

Biodegradation pathway of L-glutamatediacetate by Rhizobium radiobacter strain BG-1
An aerobic bacterium was isolated from activated sludge in a medium containing l-glutamate-N,N-diacetate (l-GLDA) as sole carbon and energy source. The isolate was identified as a Rhizobium radiobacter species.

EXO GENES OF RHIZOBIUM RADIOBACTER 36 AND THEIR CHARACTERIZATION
Bacteria of Rhizobium genus are characterized with synthesis exopolysaccharides (EPS), which play a crucial role in cell defense in abiotic stress, such as salinity, drought, heavy metals exposure etc. [1, 2]. Production of EPS by Rhizobium are controlled by a set of specific genes, such as exo genes [2].

Rhizobium radiobacter, a Rare Cause of Peritonitis
Abstract Rhizobium radiobacter is a Gram‑negative bacteria known to cause peritonitis in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients since 1985. Although it has low virulence, it is known to adhere to medical devices, raising concern for PD catheter removal. Currently, there are no guidelines as to the best practice when dealing with this agent, despite the ...

Biosorption of Pb(II) and Zn(II) by Extracellular Polymeric Substance (Eps) of Rhizobium Radiobacter : Equilibrium, Kinetics and Reuse Studies [PDF]
The extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) produced from Rhizobium radiobacter F2, designated as EPSF2 , was investigated as a biosorbent for the removal of Pb(II) and Zn(II) from aqueous solution.

STRUCTURAL MODIFICATION OF EXOPOLYSACCHARIDE BY RHIZOBIUM RADIOBACTER 36
Bacteria of the Rhizobium genus are also well-known for their ability to synthesize exopolysaccharides (EPS), which are crucial for their survival and function under abiotic stress conditions [1]. The synthesis and regulation of EPS in Rhizobium are governed by specific gene clusters, most notably the exo genes [2].

[A rare cause of catheter-related bacteremia: Rhizobium radiobacter].
Rhizobium spp. (R. radiobacter, R. rhizogenes, R. rubi, R. vitis) are aerobic, motile, non-spore forming, oxidase-positive, gram-negative bacilli. Although they are mostly plant pathogens, R. radiobacter may cause human infections. The aim of this report was to present a case of R. radiobacter bacteremia treated with levofloxacin. Twenty-seven year old
