Bilophila wadsworthia, a recently described anaerobic gram-negative bacillus, was isolated from blood cultures of two patients with liver abscesses. These isolates exhibited the expected phenotypic characteristics, and identification was confirmed by cell wall fatty acid analysis by gas-liquid chromatography. This is the first documentation of bacteremia due to B. wadsworthia.
沃兹沃思嗜胆菌是一种最近才被描述的厌氧革兰氏阴性杆菌,从两名肝脓肿患者的血培养物中分离得到。这些分离株表现出预期的表型特征,通过气液色谱法进行细胞壁脂肪酸分析证实了其鉴定结果。这是沃兹沃思嗜胆菌所致菌血症的首次记录。
