Bacteremia Caused by an Undescribed Species of Janibacter

A yellow-pigmented rod- to coccoid-shaped coryneform microorganism was isolated from the blood of a patient with acute myeloid leukemia. It was identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing as a previously undescribed species of JANIBACTER: The isolate was susceptible to penicillins, aminoglycosides, fluor...

Description
Summary:A yellow-pigmented rod- to coccoid-shaped coryneform microorganism was isolated from the blood of a patient with acute myeloid leukemia. It was identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing as a previously undescribed species of JANIBACTER: The isolate was susceptible to penicillins, aminoglycosides, fluoroquinolones, and glycopeptides.
