Abstract

Two cases of endocarditis with nutritionally variant streptococci are presented. Such strains have recently been included in the new genus Abiotrophia. A total of 12 additional Abiotrophia strains, including the type strains of Abiotrophia defectiva and Abiotrophia adiacens, were characterized in order to comment on their microbiological characteristics.

摘要

本文报告了两例由营养变异型链球菌引起的心内膜炎病例。这类菌株最近已被归入新属阿比奥罗菲亚属。为了对其微生物学特征进行评述，总共对另外12株阿比奥罗菲亚菌株进行了鉴定，包括缺陷阿比奥罗菲亚菌和毗邻阿比奥罗菲亚菌的模式菌株。
