Identification by 16S rRNA Gene Sequencing of Lactobacillus salivarius Bacteremic Cholecystitis
1 Jan 2002
Abstract excerpt
An anaerobic, nonsporulating, gram-positive bacterium was isolated from blood and bile pus cultures of a 70-year-old man with bacteremic acute cholecystitis. The API 20A system showed that it was 70% Actinomyces naeslundii and 30% Bifidobacterium species, whereas the Vitek ANI system and the ATB ID32A Expression system showed that it was "unidentified." The 16S rRNA gene of the strain was amplified and sequenced....
