| phylogenic and phenotypic characterization of some eubacterium-like isolates from human feces: description of solobacterium moorei gen. nov., sp. nov. | three isolated strains from human feces were characterized by biochemical tests and 16s rdna analysis. phylogenetic analysis revealed that these isolated strains were members of the clostridium subphylum of gram-positive bacteria. the phenotypic characters resembled those of the genus eubacterium, but these strains were shown to be phylogenetically distant from the type species of the genus, eubacterium limosum. the strains showed a specific phylogenetic association with holdemania filiformis an ... | 2000 | 10832964 |
| molecular identification of microorganisms from endodontic infections. | a relatively wide range of bacteria have been isolated from root canals using standard culture techniques. however, only 50% of the bacteria in the oral cavity are cultivable (s. s. socransky et al., arch. oral biol. 8:278-280, 1963); hence, bacterial diversity in endodontic infections is underestimated. this study used a pcr-based 16s rrna gene assay, followed by cloning and sequencing of 16s rrna amplicons from a small subset of samples to assess the diversity of bacteria present in infected r ... | 2001 | 11526164 |
| diversity of bacterial populations on the tongue dorsa of patients with halitosis and healthy patients. | the primary purpose of the present study was to compare the microbial profiles of the tongue dorsa of healthy subjects and subjects with halitosis by using culture-independent molecular methods. our overall goal was to determine the bacterial diversity on the surface of the tongue dorsum as part of our ongoing efforts to identify all cultivable and not-yet-cultivated species of the oral cavity. tongue dorsum scrapings were analyzed from healthy subjects with no complaints of halitosis and subjec ... | 2003 | 12574246 |
| septicemia due to solobacterium moorei in a patient with multiple myeloma. | we report a case of bacteremia caused by solobacterium moorei, an anaerobic, non-sporulated gram-positive bacillus in a patient with a multiple myeloma. the source of infection was presumably related to multiple dento-alveolar abscesses. this is the first recovery of s. moorei from blood cultures. | 2006 | 16723262 |
| bacteremia caused by solobacterium moorei in a patient with acute proctitis and carcinoma of the cervix. | we describe a case of solobacterium moorei bacteremia in a 43-year-old woman presenting with acute proctitis complicating radiotherapy for cervical carcinoma. phenotypic tests failed to identify the bacterium, which was subsequently identified by 16s rrna gene sequencing. 16s rrna gene sequencing could help better define the pathogenicity of s. moorei. | 2006 | 16891535 |
| femoral vein thrombophlebitis and septic pulmonary embolism due to a mixed anaerobic infection including solobacterium moorei: a case report. | abstract: | 2007 | 17605768 |
| identification of oral bacterial species associated with halitosis. | the authors examined the tongue bacteria associated with oral halitosis (bad breath originating from the oral cavity), focusing on noncultivable bacteria-bacteria that cannot be identified by bacterial culture techniques. | 2007 | 17670880 |
| new bacterial compositions in root-filled teeth with periradicular lesions. | the aim of this study was to isolate and detect microorganisms of root-filled teeth associated with periradicular lesions. specimens were sampled from patients undergoing root canal retreatment. the bacteria were characterized by morphologic and biochemical analysis and by 16s rrna gene sequencing. microorganisms were detected in 10 of 18 teeth. the majority of positive samples revealed a mixed culture of 2-8 species. in 2 teeth enterococcus faecalis was the only detected species. for the first ... | 2009 | 19166766 |
| comparisons of subgingival microbial profiles of refractory periodontitis, severe periodontitis, and periodontal health using the human oral microbe identification microarray. | this study compared the subgingival microbiota of subjects with refractory periodontitis (rp) to those in subjects with treatable periodontitis (grs = good responders) or periodontal health (ph) using the human oral microbe identification microarray (homim). | 2009 | 19722792 |
| phenotypic and molecular characterization of solobacterium moorei isolates from patients with wound infection. | though seldom reported, solobacterium moorei, which was first described in 2000, has been identified in specimens from patients with root canals, periradicular lesions, periodontal disease, dentoalveolar abscesses, bacteremia, septic thrombophlebitis, and halitosis. in the present study, we describe 9 cases of mixed wound infection, from a pool of 400 surgical wound infections that we have studied, in which s. moorei was isolated or found in a clone library. all isolates of s. moorei were identi ... | 2010 | 20071554 |
| a 6-month study of the effects of 0.3% triclosan/copolymer dentifrice on dental implants. | supportive therapy to maintain dental implants is increasingly important. this study examined the effect of a 0.3% triclosan/2% copolymer dentifrice on oral biofilms and gingival inflammation (gi) on dental implants and peri-implant tissues. | 2011 | 20831669 |
| characterization and prevalence of solobacterium moorei associated with oral halitosis. | previous studies suggest that solobacterium moorei is associated with oral halitosis. in the present study, we examined the prevalence of s. moorei on the dorsal surface of the tongue in 57 adults (21 with and 36 without halitosis) by bacterial culture and direct amplification of nucleic acids. we also examined the s. moorei type strain and four clinical isolates for 16s ribosomal nucleic acid sequence, h(2)s and enzyme production, and antibiotic susceptibility. s. moorei was found on the dorsal ... | 2008 | 21386146 |
| analysis of microbiota associated with peri-implantitis using 16s rrna gene clone library. | peri-implantitis (pi) is an inflammatory disease which leads to the destruction of soft and hard tissues around osseointegrated implants. the subgingival microbiota appears to be responsible for peri-implant lesions and although the complexity of the microbiota has been reported in pi, the microbiota responsible for pi has not been identified. | 2010 | 21523229 |
| solobacterium moorei bacteremia: identification, antimicrobial susceptibility and clinical characteristics. | we present five cases of solobacterium moorei bacteremia. the isolates were identified with 16s rrna gene sequencing and were susceptible to common antibiotics used for anaerobic infections. bacteremia with s. moorei seems to be associated with debilitating conditions but the prognosis of the infection appears to be good. | 2011 | 21525228 |
