Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Desulfovibrio spp are anaerobic, sulfate-reducing, non-fermenting gramnegative bacteria found in the digestive tract of humans. Identification of these species with conventional methods is difficult. The reported case of a D. desulfuricans bacteremia occurring in an immune compromised host with ulcerative colitis confirms that this organism may be a possible opportunistic human pathogen. |
