Vibrio vulnificus is a Gram-negative bacterium which is associated with severe infections in humans. We experienced two cases of sucrose-fermenting V. vulnificus infection. The causative agents in both cases were unidentifiable by conventional identification systems because of their unique characteristics, and sequencing of 16S rDNA was found to be useful for diagnosis.
创伤弧菌是一种革兰氏阴性菌,可引发人类严重感染。我们遇到了两例蔗糖发酵型创伤弧菌感染病例。由于其独特的特征,这两例病例中的病原体无法通过传统鉴定系统进行鉴定,而16S核糖体DNA测序被发现对诊断很有用。
