In a previous study the authors reported the characterization of some facultatively anaerobic, Gram-positive, non-sporeforming rods which were found in mixed cultures from various infectious processes, including patients with otitis, empyema, perianal abscesses and decubitus ulcers. Phenotypically these organisms closely resembled Actinomyces pyogenes although their precise taxonomic position remained unknown. In the present investigation the authors have determined the 16S rRNA gene sequences of some representative strains of the Actinomyces pyogenes-like bacteria and report the results of a comparative sequence analysis. On the basis of the results of the present and earlier findings two new Actinomyces species, Actinomyces radingae sp. nov. and Actinomyces turicensis sp. nov. are proposed. The type strains are DSM 9169T and DSM 9168T, respectively.
在先前的一项研究中，作者报告了一些兼性厌氧、革兰氏阳性、无芽孢杆菌的特征，这些细菌存在于来自各种感染过程的混合培养物中，包括患有中耳炎、脓胸、肛周脓肿和褥疮溃疡的患者。从表型上看，这些微生物与化脓放线菌非常相似，尽管它们的确切分类地位尚不清楚。在本研究中，作者测定了一些化脓放线菌样细菌代表性菌株的16S rRNA基因序列，并报告了比较序列分析的结果。根据本研究及早期研究结果，提出了两个新的放线菌物种，即罗丁放线菌新种（Actinomyces radingae sp. nov.）和图里放线菌新种（Actinomyces turicensis sp. nov.）。模式菌株分别为DSM 9169T和DSM 9168T。
