Cutaneous Brucellosis unmasked as Aureimonas altamirensis in a wound culture
Aureimonas altamirensis was isolated from a wound culture and initially misidentified as Brucella melitensis by the VITEK® 2 system. The VITEK-MS did not provide identification whereas the Bruker MALDI-ToF MS system and 16-S sequencing revealed a clear identification, which highlights the importance...

description | Aureimonas altamirensis was isolated from a wound culture and initially misidentified as Brucella melitensis by the VITEK® 2 system. The VITEK-MS did not provide identification whereas the Bruker MALDI-ToF MS system and 16-S sequencing revealed a clear identification, which highlights the importance of inclusion of species in databases for accurate and fast identification of bacteria. |
