| [hafnia alvei septicemia with shock and dic in an adult with postoperative lung cancer]. | in japan, we experienced the first case of hafnia alvei septicemia with shock and disseminated intravascular coagulation (dic) in an adult with postoperative lung cancer. a 63 year-old male, who had been followed up in our department since 1987, was admitted to our hospital with the complaints of fever, hemoptysis and dyspnea on june 25, 1989. after admission, he was treated with sulbactam/cefoperazone 4 g/day intravenously for suspicion of respiratory-tract infection. after antibiotic administr ... | 1991 | 1761901 |

| inhibition of yersinia enterocolitica serotype o3 by natural microflora of pork. | yersinia enterocolitica serotype o3 did not grow but did survive in inoculated raw ground pork kept at 6 and 25 degrees c. the antagonistic effect of microbial flora, especially hafnia alvei and environmental yersinia organisms, on the growth of y. enterocolitica serotype o3 in raw ground pork was evident. these results were supported by evidence of the inhibition of growth of y. enterocolitica serotype o3 by enterobacteriaceae, especially h. alvei and environmental yersinia organisms, in mixed ... | 1986 | 3729395 |
| koserella trabulsii, a new genus and species of enterobacteriaceae formerly known as enteric group 45. | the name koserella trabulsii is proposed for a group of enterobacteriaceae formerly called enteric group 45. this group consists of 12 strains that were originally identified as atypical hafnia alvei. k. trabulsii strains were negative for indole production, voges-proskauer, h2s production, urea hydrolysis, phenylalanine deaminase, and acid production from glycerol, lactose, sucrose, and d-sorbitol; they were positive for methyl red, citrate (simmons), lysine and ornithine decarboxylases, argini ... | 1985 | 3968202 |
| aerobic bacterial oral flora of garter snakes: development of normal flora and pathogenic potential for snakes and humans. | garter snakes that are used for scientific laboratory studies or kept as exotic pets often become ill and die early in captivity. they may also act as reservoirs of potential human pathogens or transmit infection to man. a total of 126 strains of aerobic and facultative bacteria, most potential human and snake pathogens, were isolated from 82 garter snake oropharyngeal cultures. coagulase-negative staphylococcus species were the most common species isolated. acinetobacter calcoaceticus var. anit ... | 1981 | 7240404 |

| characteristics of alcohol dehydrogenases of certain aerobic bacteria representing human colonic flora. | we have recently proposed the existence of a bacteriocolonic pathway for ethanol oxidation [i.e., ethanol is oxidized by alcohol dehydrogenases (adhs) of intestinal bacteria resulting in high intracolonic levels of reactive and toxic acetaldehyde]. the aim of this in vitro study was to characterize further adh activity of some aerobic bacteria, representing the normal human colonic flora. these bacteria were earlier shown to possess high cytosolic adh activities (escherichia coli ih 133369, kleb ... | 1997 | 9161610 |
| characterisation of hafnia alvei isolates from human clinical extra-intestinal specimens: haemagglutinins, serum resistance and siderophore synthesis. | extra-intestinal hafnia alvei isolates are rarely considered to be pathogenic. to investigate whether such strains are able to produce virulence factors, a total of 70 clinical h. alvei isolates was compared with clinical extra-intestinal isolates of other members of the enterobacterial tribe klebsiellae (kiebsiella pneumoniae, enterobacter cloacae, serratia marcescens). whereas mannose-sensitive haemagglutination (msha) was less common in h. alvei (59%) than in k. pneumoniae (86%) and e. cloaca ... | 2001 | 11232764 |

| [hafnia alvei bacteremia with liver and muscle abscess: a case report]. | hafnia alvei is a commensal organism of the digestive tract. it is best known as an agent of pediatric gastro-enteritis. in adults, this organism may exceptionally be responsible for extra-intestinal infections. in such cases, infections occur mainly in unusually susceptible patients, due to an underlying condition. | 2003 | 12876518 |
| [hafnia alvei in a rare case of severe pneumonia in a postanesthesia recovery unit]. | an 85-year-old man with a history of moderate chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in treatment with anticholinergic drugs was admitted to the recovery unit for postoperative monitoring after right inguinal herniorrhaphy surgery and removal of a strangulated intestinal section. on the third day after surgery the patient developed radiographic signs consistent with pneumonia and required mechanical ventilation. two blood cultures and a respiratory secretion sample grew a microorganism identified ... | 2005 | 16038176 |
| antibiotic resistance and adherence properties of hafnia alvei clinical isolates: a 19-month study in the hospital of orléans, france. | we studied the epidemiology of antibiotic resistance and adherence properties among all hafnia alvei clinical isolates collected from august 2003 to february 2005 from patients hospitalized in the hospital of orléans, france. the isolates were typed by random amplified polymorphic dna (rapd), screened for antibiotic resistance and bacterial adherence to a549 respiratory and t24 bladder cells. six intestinal, 3 respiratory, and 8 isolates from different body sites were collected. a total of 12 ra ... | 2007 | 18230550 |
| immunochemical studies of the lipopolysaccharides of hafnia alvei pcm 1219 and other strains with the o-antigens containing d-glucose 1-phosphate and 2-deoxy-2-[(r)-3-hydroxybutyramido]-d-glucose. | hafnia alveiis the only species of the genus hafnia, which belongs to the family of enterobacteriaceae. these gram-negative bacteria are commonly distributed in the natural environment and are often the cause of human opportunistic infections. their lipopolysaccharides (lpss) are important surface antigens which are responsible for the serological specificity and numerous cross-reactions with other enterobacterial genera. so far, 29 different o-polysaccharide (ops, o-antigen) structures in hafni ... | 2008 | 18836891 |
| phenotypic characterization of human pathogenic bacteria in fish from the coastal waters of south west cameroon: public health implications. | increasing economic and recreational opportunities, attractive scenery and a perception of a better quality of life are luring people to the coast. unfortunately, these activities together with the commensurate increase in population in the area inevitably result in pollution of coastal waters with excessive microorganisms and other pollutants. microbial pollutants not only contaminate the coastal water but also aquatic food sources, thus posing a health risk to consumers. fish is a major source ... | 2009 | 19658320 |
