Actinobacillus ureae, previously Pasteurella ureae, has on rare occasions been described as a cause of human infection. Owing to its rarity, it may not be easily identified in clinical microbiology laboratories by standard tests. This report describes a patient with acute bacterial meningitis due to A. ureae. The identity of the isolate was determined by means of DNA sequence analysis of a portion of the 16S rRNA gene.
尿素放线杆菌,以前称为尿素巴斯德菌,很少被描述为人类感染的病因。由于其罕见性,在临床微生物实验室中通过标准检测可能不容易识别。本报告描述了一名因尿素放线杆菌引起急性细菌性脑膜炎的患者。分离株的鉴定通过对16S rRNA基因的一部分进行DNA序列分析来确定。
