Case Report: Shewanella algae, a rare cause of osteosynthesis-associated infection [version 2; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]
F1000Research, 2023 Shewanella is an emerging human pathogen. It mostly causes skin and soft tissue infections. Osteosynthesis-associated infection involving Shewanella are rare and in most cases are secondary to direct contamination following open fractures in aquatic ...

Treatment and Management of Shewanella algae Necrotizing Cellulitis. [PDF]
CureusShewanella algae is considered an emerging novel pathogenic cause of severe skin infections. The organism is a gram-negative motile bacillus commonly found in marine environments. While the more common causes of skin and soft tissue infections include Staphylococcus aureus, beta-hemolytic Streptococci, and/or Vibrio vulnificus, S.

First case of human spondylodiscitis due to Shewanella algae [PDF]
International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2010 We present the first case of human spondylodiscitis due to Shewanella algae. Our patient did not have any predisposing factors. The portal of entry was probably a cutaneous lesion on the leg, exposed to seawater. Bacteria were isolated in pure culture from a needle biopsy specimen of the vertebral disk.

Cobra bite wound infection caused by Shewanella algae [PDF]
International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2014 Shewanella wound infections after snake bites are rare. We report the case of a Shewanella algae wound infection associated with a cobra bite in a 27-year-old woman. The isolate was confirmed by sequencing of the 16S ribosomal DNA gene. This case expands the reported spectrum of infection caused by S. algae and raises the possibility that S.

The Fulminating Course of Infection Caused by Shewanella algae: A Case Report. [PDF]
Infect Drug Resist, 2022 Shewanella algae, a Gram-negative bacillus found in warm saltwater environments, has been increasingly recognized as a human pathogen that can cause infection of the skin and soft tissue, ear, blood, and intra-abdominal. In this case, we report a Shewanella algae infection that caused sepsis, renal insufficiency, cardiac dysfunction, fistula and ...

Draft-genome sequence of Shewanella algae strain C6G3 [PDF]
Standards in Genomic Sciences, 2015 Shewanella algae strain C6G3, isolated from the 2 uppermost centimeters of muddy sediment of Arcachon Bay (SW Atlantic French coast, sampled in October 2007) has the capability to use a large panel of terminal electron acceptors under anaerobic condition, such as nitrate, nitrite and metal-oxide, and presents a great metabolic versatility.
