A Case of Gluconacetobacter Liquefaciens Bacteremia Associated with Sugarcane Juice Ingestion JMID/ 2020; 10 (1):62-67 Journal of Microbiology and Infectious Diseases doi: 10.5799/jmid.700538 CASE ROPORT A Case of Gluconacetobacter liquefaciens Bacteremia Associated with Sugarcane Juice Ingestion Maxwell Olenski1,2, Lisa Brenton2, Lee Taylor2, Tim Papaluca3, Amy Crowe1,2 1Infectious Diseases Department, St Vincent’s Hospital, Fitzroy, VIC, Australia 2Microbiology Department, St Vincent’s Hospital, Fitzroy, VIC, Australia 3Gastroenterology Department, St Vincent’s Hospital, Fitzroy, VIC, Australia ABSTRACT Gluconacetobacter liquefaciens is a Gram-negative bacterium that has previously been described as a plant pathogen. To the best of our knowledge, only one previous case of human infection with Gluconacetobacter species has been described and was associated with severe immunodeficiency. We describe a case of recurrent Gluconacetobacter liquefaciens bacteremia in a patient with advanced liver cirrhosis and propose that gut translocation in the setting of portal hypertension and frequent sugarcane juice ingestion may have been the etiology. This case expands on our knowledge of Gluconacetobacter liquefaciens as a potential emerging human pathogen in certain situations and describes the difficulty encountered in antimicrobial testing and management.

  • Chocolate Agar Plate MP103 Intended Use for Isolation of Neisseria Gonorrhoeae from Chronic and Acute Gonococcal Infections
    Chocolate Agar Plate MP103 Intended use For isolation of Neisseria gonorrhoeae from chronic and acute gonococcal infections. Composition** Ingredients Gms / Litre Proteose peptone 20.000 Dextrose 0.500 Sodium chloride 5.000 Disodium phosphate 5.000 Agar 15.000 After sterilization Sterile Lysed blood (at 80°C) 50.000 Vitamino Growth Supplement (FD025) 2 vials Final pH ( at 25°C) 7.3±0.2 **Formula adjusted, standardized to suit performance parameters Directions Either streak, inoculate or surface spread the test inoculum (50-100 CFU) aseptically on the plate. Principle And Interpretation Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a gram-negative bacteria and the causative agent of gonorrhea, however it is also occasionally found in the throat. The cultivation medium for gonococci should ideally be a rich nutrients base with blood, either partially lysed or completely lysed. The diagnosis and control of gonorrhea have been greatly facilitated by improved laboratory methods for detecting, isolating and studying N. gonorrhoeae. Chocolate Agar Base, with the addition of supplements, gives excellent growth of the gonococcus without overgrowth by contaminating organisms. G.C. Agar (M434) can also be used in place of Chocolate Agar Base, which gives slightly better results than Chocolate Agar (4). The diagnosis and control of gonorrhea have been greatly facilitated by improved laboratory methods for detecting, isolating and studying N. gonorrhoea. Interest in the cultural procedure for the diagnosis of gonococcal infection was stimulated by Ruys and Jens (9), Mcleod and co-workers (8), Thompson (7), Leahy and Carpenter (1), Carpenter, Leahy and Wilson (2) and Carpenter (10), who clearly demonstrated the superiority of this method over the microscopic technique.

CO 2 favors primary isolation. The medium is best for organisms which require X and V Factor. HISTORY/SUMMARY: Interest in the cultural procedure for the diagnosis of gonococcal infections was stimulated by Ruys and Hens McLeod et al 2, Leahy and Carpenter, Leahy and Wilson 5 and Carpenter 6 who clearly demonstrated the superiority of this method over the microscopic technique. Further studies in cooperation with Carpenter, and McLeod 7 and Herrold resulted in the development of Chocolate Agar prepared with Proteose No. 3 Agar and Hemoglobin, which proved to be satisfactory for isolating the organism from all types of gonococcal infections. Chapin and Doern found that in only 6 of 17 cases was Haemophilus influenzae recovered from sputum specimens cultured by using conventional techniques including enriched chocolate agar (CHOC) media, despite the fact that gram stained smears of sputum specimens often revealed a predominance of pleomorphic gram- negative bacilli. Observations such as these have lead to the development of selective media which inhibit upper respiratory tract microbial flora while permitting growth of Haemophilus influenzae . Approaches utilized most frequently incorporate bacitracin into various enriched basal media ( 11, 12, 13, 14 ).

  • Rapid Identification Ofbacteroides Fragilis with Bile and Antibiotic Disks D

Rapid Identification ofBacteroides fragilis with Bile and Antibiotic Disks D. L. DRAPER1 AND A. L. BARRY* Section ofInfectious and Immunologic Diseases, School of Medicine, University of California, Davis, California 95616, and Clinical Microbiology Laboratories, Medical Center, Sacramento, California 95817* Received for publication 21 December 1976 A simple screening test is described for separating Bacteroides fragilis from other anaerobic gram-negative bacilli. The test utilizes filter paper disks im- pregnated with 25 mg of oxgall (Difco), tested in conjunction with antibiotic identification disks. The bile disks and antibiotic disks are placed on a supple- mented brucella blood agar plate which has been inoculated by swabbing with a standardized cell suspension. After 24 h at 350C in a GasPak jar, resistance to kanamycin and bile is taken as a presumptive identification of B. fragilis. Susceptibility to one or both disks indicates the need for further identification and additional biochemical tests are required. Those strains that produce insuf- ficient growth within 24 h are not likely to be B. fragilis. The reliability of the bile disk method was tested by comparing results with 100 clinical isolates versus results with bile in thioglycolate broth, peptone-yeast extract-glucose broth, and tryptic soy agar. All four bile test methods gave equilvalent results, but the broth media required much longer periods of incubation.

  • APPENDIX a Media and Reagents
    APPENDIX A Media and Reagents Pauline K. w. Yu, M.S. The use of appropriate and dependable media is integral to the isolation and identification of microorganisms. Unfortunately, comparative data docu­ menting the relative efficacy or value of media designed for similar purposes are often lacking. Moreover, one cannot presume identity in composition of a given generic product which is manufactured by several companies because each may supplement the generic products with components, often of a proprietary nature and not specified in the product's labeling. Finally, the actual production of similar products may vary among manufacturers to a sufficient extent to affect their performance. For all of these reasons, therefore, product selection for the laboratory should not be strictly based on cost considerations and should certainly not be based on promotional materials. Evaluations that have been published in the scientific literature should be consulted when available. Alternatively, the prospective buyer should consult a recognized authority in the field. It is seldom necessary for the laboratory to prepare media using basic components since these are usually available combined in dehydrated form from commercial sources; however, knowledge of a medium's basic compo­ nents is helpful in understanding how the medium works and what might be wrong when it does not work. Hence, the components have been listed for each medium included in this chapter. All dehydrated media must be prepared exactly according to the manu­ facturers' directions. Any deviation from these directions may adversely affect or significantly alter a medium's performance. Containers of media should be dated on receipt and when opened, and the media should never be used beyond expiration dates specified by the manufacturers or recom­ mended by quality control programs.

  • Tularemia – Epidemiology
    This first edition of theWHO guidelines on tularaemia is the WHO GUIDELINES ON TULARAEMIA result of an international collaboration, initiated at a WHO meeting WHO GUIDELINES ON in Bath, UK in 2003. The target audience includes clinicians, laboratory personnel, public health workers, veterinarians, and any other person with an interest in zoonoses. Tularaemia Tularaemia is a bacterial zoonotic disease of the northern hemisphere. The bacterium (Francisella tularensis) is highly virulent for humans and a range of animals such as rodents, hares and rabbits. Humans can infect themselves by direct contact with infected animals, by arthropod bites, by ingestion of contaminated water or food, or by inhalation of infective aerosols. There is no human-to-human transmission. In addition to its natural occurrence, F. tularensis evokes great concern as a potential bioterrorism agent. F. tularensis subspecies tularensis is one of the most infectious pathogens known in human medicine. In order to avoid laboratory-associated infection, safety measures are needed and consequently, clinical laboratories do not generally accept specimens for culture. However, since clinical management of cases depends on early recognition, there is an urgent need for diagnostic services. The book provides background information on the disease, describes the current best practices for its diagnosis and treatment in humans, suggests measures to be taken in case of epidemics and provides guidance on how to handle F. tularensis in the laboratory.

  • Glucanoacetobacter
    GLUCANOACETOBACTER INTRODUCTION Glucanoacetobacter is a genuine in the phylum proto bacteria. It is like rod shape and circular ends. It can be classified as gram negative bacterium. The bacterium is known for stimulating plant growth and being tolerant to acetic acid with one to three lateral flagella and known to be found on sugar cane. Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus was discovered in Brazil by Bladimir A Cavalcante and Johannna/Dobereiner. Domain: Bacteria Phylum: Proteobacteria Class :Alphaproteobacteria Order : Rhodospirillales Family: Acetobacteraceae Genus:Gluconacetobacter Species:G.diazotrophicus CHARACTERISTICS Originally found in Alagoas, Brazil, Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus is a bacterium that has several interesting features and aspects which are important to note. The bacterium was first discovered by Vladimir A. Cavalcante and Johanna Dobereiner while analyzing sugarcane in Brazil. Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus is a part of the Acetobacteraceae family and started out with the name, Saccharibacter nitrocaptans, however, the bacterium is renamed as Acetobacter diazotrophicus because the bacterium is found to belong with bacteria that are able to tolerate acetic acid. Again, the bacterium’s name was changed to Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus when its taxonomic position was resolved using 16s ribosomal RNA analysis. In addition to being a part of the Acetobacter family, Gluconacetobacter azotrophicus belongs to the Proteobacteria phylum, the Alphaprotebacteria class, and the Gluconacetobacter genus while being a part of the Rhodosprillales order. Other nitrogen-fixing species in this same genus include Gluconacetobacter azotocaptans and Gluconacetobacter johannae. Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus cells are shaped like rods, have ends that are circular or round, and have anywhere from one to three flagella that are lateral. Based on these descriptions of the cell, Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus can be classified with the bacillus genus.
