Reported here is the case of a patient with metastatic adenocarcinoma of the lung who had bacteremia involving Pseudomonas mesophilica. Of the common laboratory media tested at 35 degrees C, buffered charcoal yeast extract agar and nutrient agar provided the best growth; however, other media supported growth at lower temperatures. Since blood cultures are routinely subcultured onto chocolate agar and then incubated at 35 degrees C, awareness of the characteristics of P. mesophilica and of the isolation techniques as outlined may enhance the recovery of this and related bacterial species.
本文报告了一例肺转移性腺癌患者发生嗜温假单胞菌菌血症的病例。在35℃下测试的常见实验室培养基中，缓冲活性炭酵母提取物琼脂和营养琼脂提供了最佳生长条件；然而，其他培养基在较低温度下也支持生长。由于血培养通常转接至巧克力琼脂上，然后在35℃下孵育，了解嗜温假单胞菌的特征和所述的分离技术可能会提高该菌及相关细菌的检出率。
