Solobacterium moorei bacteremia: identification, antimicrobial susceptibility, and clinical characteristics.

ABSTRACT: We present five cases of Solobacterium moorei bacteremia. The isolates were identified with 16S rRNA gene sequencing and were susceptible to common antibiotics used for anaerobic infections. Bacteremia with S. moorei seems to be associated with debilitating conditions, but the prognosis of the infection appears to be good.

First case report of bacteremia caused by Solobacterium moorei in China, and literature review.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Solobacterium moorei, the only species in the genus Solobacterium, is a Gram-positive, non-spore-forming, strict anaerobic, short to long bacillus. It has rarely been documented to cause blood stream infections. Here we report the first case of bacteremia caused by S.moorei in China. CASE PRESENTATION:A 61-year-old male presented to Peking Union Medical College Hospital (Beijing) with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) and several other underlying diseases. He also had persistent coma accompanied by intermittent convulsions, halitosis, and intermittent fever. Blood cultures taken when the patient had a high fever were positive, with the anaerobic bottle yielding an organism identified as S.moorei by 16S rRNA gene sequencing, whilst the aerobic bottle grew Streptococcus mitis. After replacement of venous pipeline, and empirical use of vancomycin and meropenem, the patient's body temperature and white blood cell count returned to normal. Unfortunately, the patient died of severe TTP. CONCLUSION:This is the first case report of S. moorei isolation from blood stream in China. 16S rRNA gene sequencing is the only method that can identify S. moorei. Blood cultures must be taken before administration of antibiotics, and anaerobic culture should be considered for such rare pathogens in patients with oral diseases and immune deficiency.

Bacteremia caused by Solobacterium moorei in a patient with acute proctitis and carcinoma of the cervix.

Project description:We describe a case of Solobacterium moorei bacteremia in a 43-year-old woman presenting with acute proctitis complicating radiotherapy for cervical carcinoma. Phenotypic tests failed to identify the bacterium, which was subsequently identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. 16S rRNA gene sequencing could help better define the pathogenicity of S. moorei.

Phenotypic and molecular characterization of Solobacterium moorei isolates from patients with wound infection.

Project description:Though seldom reported, Solobacterium moorei, which was first described in 2000, has been identified in specimens from patients with root canals, periradicular lesions, periodontal disease, dentoalveolar abscesses, bacteremia, septic thrombophlebitis, and halitosis. In the present study, we describe 9 cases of mixed wound infection, from a pool of 400 surgical wound infections that we have studied, in which S. moorei was isolated or found in a clone library. All isolates of S. moorei were identified by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, and then six were examined for their physiological and biochemical characteristics and for antimicrobial susceptibility. The results of the present study indicate that Solobacterium moorei may be a significant component in some mixed surgical wound infections and that surgical management and antimicrobial therapy may be indicated when these bacteria are identified in significant situations.

Clinical characteristics of Ochrobactrum anthropi bacteremia.

Project description:The clinical picture of Ochrobactrum anthropi infection is not well described because the infection is rare in humans and identification of the pathogen is difficult. We present a case of O. anthropi bacteremia that was initially misidentified as Ralstonia paucula and later identified by 16S rRNA sequencing and recA analysis.

First case of <i>Campylobacter rectus</i> and <i>Solobacterium moorei</i> mixed bacteraemia successfully identified by MALDI TOF-MS.

Project description:Campylobacter rectus and Solobacterium moorei are anaerobic Gram-negative and Gram-positive rods, respectively, that are occasionally members of the human oral flora. Bacteraemia has rarely been reported. We present the first case of mixed C. rectus-S. moorei bacteraemia in an individual with diabetes and human immunodeficiency virus infection. Both bacteria were successfully identified by MALDI-TOF MS.
