Abstract
<i>Corynebacterium pseudogenitalium</i>Urinary Tract Infection
Highlights
The strain was correctly identified to the species level as Corynebacterium pseudogenitalium by using polymerase chain reaction and sequencing 16 rRNA as previously described [1,2]
C. pseudogenitalium was divided into 5 types based on biochemical patterns, and strains of the type C-5 were differentiated from other types on the basis of urease production
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) group F-1 make up 2 genomic groups at the species level
Summary
The strain was correctly identified to the species level as Corynebacterium pseudogenitalium by using polymerase chain reaction and sequencing 16 rRNA as previously described [1,2]. Comparison of 785 nucleotides [546–1,331] gave a 16S rDNA similarity value of 99.9% between the sequences of the isolated strain and C. pseudogenitalium ATCC 33039/NCTC11860 The patient improved and remained healthy 6 months after therapy.
