| neisseria elongata subsp. nitroreducens subsp. nov., formerly cdc group m-6, a gram-negative bacterium associated with endocarditis. | cdc group m-6 is the vernacular name given to a gram-negative, oxidase-positive, aerobic, nonmotile, rod-shaped bacterium. this organism is biochemically similar to kingella denitrificans and displays a cellular fatty acid profile consistent with cdc groups m-5 and ef-4 and with neisseria elongata. of the 95 m-6 strains referred to the centers for disease control (cdc) for identification, 32 (64%) of the first 50 were from the throat or sputum and only 3 (6%) were from blood; only 5 (11%) of the ... | 1990 | 2279987 |
| dog-associated bacterial infections in humans: isolates submitted to an australian reference laboratory, 1981-1992. | over the period 1981-92, 32 bacterial isolates were referred to the microbiological diagnostic unit from infected dog-bite wounds and 10 isolates were submitted from blood cultures after dog bites or close contact with dogs. the isolates from the bite wounds were identified, or confirmed, as pasteurella multocida (11 isolates), pasteurella dagmatis (3), cdc group m-5 (9), cdc group ef-4a (8) and streptococcus anginosus (1). five of the 9 patients from whom cdc group m-5 was cultured had mixed in ... | 1993 | 8165003 |
| neisseria weaveri sp. nov. (formerly cdc group m-5), from dog bite wounds of humans. | the taxonomic relationships of strains belonging to centers for disease control group m-5 were examined. previous studies of rrna cistron similarities placed this organism on the neisseriaceae rrna branch of rrna superfamily iii; the closest neighbors included the genus neisseria and groups ef-4a and ef-4b. the group m-5 strains were characterized by a range of phenotypic tests, and their g + c contents and dna-dna relatedness levels were determined. in addition, a numerical taxonomic analysis o ... | 1993 | 8240951 |
| biochemical characteristics and fatty acid composition of gilardi rod group 1 bacteria. | fifteen strains of eugonic, nonoxidative, gram-negative rods isolated primarily from human wounds of the extremities and blood formed a distinct group which was designated gilardi rod group 1. the phenotypic characteristics of gilardi rod group 1 were most similar to those of cdc group m-5, with the major difference that nitrite reduction was observed with cdc group m-5. all 15 strains of gilardi rod group 1 possessed a distinct fatty acid profile which was characterized by large amounts (> 15%) ... | 1993 | 8384629 |
| neisseria weaveri sp. nov., formerly cdc group m-5, a gram-negative bacterium associated with dog bite wounds. | cdc group m-5 is a rod-shaped, gram-negative, nonmotile bacterium associated with dog bite wounds. dna-dna relatedness and biochemical and growth characteristics were studied for 54 strains from the collection at the centers for disease control and prevention. one typical m-5 strain, 8142, was further studied by 16s rrna sequencing. dna from 40 of 53 strains showed 82 to 100% relatedness (hydroxyapatite method) to labeled dna from strain 8142. the guanine-plus-cytosine (g + c) content in 8 of th ... | 1993 | 8408570 |
| [in vitro susceptibility of pasteurella and related bacteria to five orally administered antibiotics]. | tetracyclines and beta-lactam antibiotics are usually recommended for the treatment of pasteurellosis following bite wounds. however other oral antimicrobial agents could be proposed. in vitro susceptibility of 94 pasteurella strains [p. multocida (79), p. stomatis (11), p. dagmatis (2), p. canis (1), p. "sp" (1)], 20 group ef-4 strains and 28 neisseria weaveri strains (formerly group m-5), that are bacteria often isolated after animal-inflicted wounds, was studied towards five antibiotics: clar ... | 1996 | 8758472 |

| activity of gatifloxacin compared to those of five other quinolones versus aerobic and anaerobic isolates from skin and soft tissue samples of human and animal bite wound infections. | the activity of gatifloxacin against 308 aerobes and 112 anaerobes isolated from bite wound infections was studied. gatifloxacin was active at </=0.016 microg/ml against all 148 pasteurella isolates (eight species and three subspecies) tested and all other aerobes tested, including actinobacillus-haemophilus spp., eikenella corrodens, neisseria weaveri, weeksella zoohelcum, staphylococci, and streptococci. fusobacteria were sometimes resistant. gatifloxacin mics at which 90% of the isolates were ... | 1999 | 10348774 |
| wound infection with neisseria weaveri and a novel subspecies of pasteurella multocida in a child who sustained a tiger bite. | a 7-year-old girl developed a wound infection as a result of a tiger bite she sustained. dna sequence analysis revealed that the causative organisms were neisseria weaveri and what is, to our knowledge, a previously undescribed subspecies of pasteurella multocida, for which we propose the designation "pasteurella multocida subspecies tigris subspecies nov." | 2002 | 12032914 |
| a case of lower respiratory tract infection caused by neisseria weaveri and review of the literature. | neisseria weaveri (formerly cdc [centers for disease control and prevention] group m-5 is part of the normal canine oral flora. infections in humans are usually associated with dog bite wounds. very rarely the organism has been isolated from sites other than wounds, or from deep seated infections. a 60-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of an acute exacerbation of his bronchiectasis. gram stain of bronchial washings and expectorated sputum showed numerous polymorphs and gram-negat ... | 2002 | 12076070 |
| management of human and animal bite wound infection: an overview. | animal and human bite wounds can lead to serious infections. the organisms recovered generally originate from the biter's oral cavity and the victim's skin flora. anaerobes were isolated from more than two thirds of human and animal bite infections. streptococcus pyogenes is often recovered in human bites, pasteurella multocida in animal bites, eikenella corrodens in animal and human, capnocytophaga spp, neisseria weaveri, weeksella zoohelcum, neisseria canis, staphylococcus intermedius, nonoxid ... | 2009 | 19698283 |

| comparative genomics of neisseria weaveri clarifies the taxonomy of this species and identifies genetic determinants that may be associated with virulence. | a group of bacterial strains formerly known as cdc group m-5 are opportunistic pathogens to humans. in 1993, a name, neisseria weaveri, was proposed by two independent studies to harbor cdc group m-5 strains, namely n. weaveri holmes et al. 1993 and n. weaveri andersen et al. 1993, with two different 'type' strains. however, no study has been conducted on to the relatedness of the two 'type' strains, although the close relationship of the two taxa has long been accepted unofficially. formally, t ... | 2011 | 22188430 |
| effect of stoned olive pomace on rumen microbial communities and polyunsaturated fatty acid biohydrogenation: an in vitro study. | stoned olive pomace (sop), which represents approximately 50% of the conversion process of olives to olive oil, is largely not utilised and creates costs for its disposal and has negative environmental impacts. in vitro trial experiments were employed to study the effect of feeds integrated with this bio-waste, which is rich in polyphenols, on rumen biohydrogenation, using sheep rumen liquor as inoculum. | 2014 | 25424901 |
| in vitro activity of pexiganan and 10 comparator antimicrobials against 234 isolates including 93 pasteurella spp. and 50 anaerobic bacteria recovered from animal bite wounds. | animal bite wounds affect more than 5 million americans resulting in 300,000 emergency department visits, 10,000 hospitalizations and untold number of physician office visits annually. various forms of topical therapy are empirically self-employed by many patients prior to seeking medical attention. pexiganan, a 22-amino acid synthetic cationic analogue of peptide magainin ii, acts by selectively damaging bacterial cell membranes. we determined the mics for pexiganan and other antimicrobial agen ... | 2017 | 28373186 |

| neisseria weaveri andersen et al. 1993 is a later heterotypic synonym of neisseria weaveri holmes et al. 1993. | two species of the genus neisseria, namely neisseria weaveri andersen et al. 1993 and neisseria weaveri holmes et al. 1993, were simultaneously proposed and described in the same volume of international journal of systematic bacteriology, and have been maintained as heterotypic homonyms. however, the identical 16s rrna gene sequence and high (99.1 %) average nucleotide identity (ani) between the genome sequences of the two type strains implied that these two taxa should be united as a single gen ... | 2015 | 25389153 |
