Date of Publication: 01 Dec 2016. | Journal: | Anaerobe | Abstract: | Bacteroides pyogenes is part of the normal oral flora of domestic animals. There is one previous report of human infection, with B. pyogenes bacteremia following a cat bite (Madsen 2011). We report seven severe human infections where B. pyogenes was identified by Bruker matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDTI-TOF MS), but not by VITEK MS and was misidentified by VITEK ANC card.Copyright © 2016 | DOI: | http://monash.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.anaerobe.2016.10.008 | PubMed URL: | 27771394 [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=27771394] | ISSN: | 1075-9964 | URI: | https://repository.monashhealth.org/monashhealthjspui/handle/1/39811 | Type: | Article | Subjects: | cat bite adult aged antibiotic sensitivity article bacteremia bacterium identification bacterium isolation *Bacteroides biochemical analysis *bite bites and stings chemical analyzer child clinical article disease severity dog bite female gene sequence human male mass spectrometer matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry middle aged nonhuman Pasteurella priority journal school child Staphylococcus *wound infection/et [Etiology] amoxicillin plus clavulanic acid bacterial DNA metronidazole moxifloxacin penicillin derivative piperacillin plus tazobactam *Bacteroides pyogenes bacteremia bacterium identification bites and stings disease severity dog bite female gene sequence human male mass spectrometer matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry middle aged nonhuman Pasteurella priority journal school child Staphylococcus chemical analyzer *wound infection / *etiology *bite biochemical analysis *Bacteroides bacterium isolation adult aged antibiotic sensitivity Article clinical article child |
