Özet

New identification techniques such as gene sequencing and mass spectrometry have increased the incidence of novel agents such as Kerstersia gyiorum. As a new member of the Alcaligenaceae family, K. gyiorum was isolated from wounds, respiratory tract, urine specimens and most frequently from chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM). We isolated three K. gyiorum strains from three CSOM cases over a one-year period. The strains were analyzed by mass spectrometry and identified by Bruker Biotyper 3.1 (Bruker Daltonics, USA). The cases were young patients without chronic diseases and immuno-deficiencies. Two strains were resistant to ciprofloxacin. © 2018, EDIMES Edizioni Medico Scientifiche. All rights reserved.
