Isolation and characterization of Pigmentiphaga-like isolates from human clinical material.
Species in the genus Pigmentiphaga are Gram-negative, catalase- and oxidase-positive rods derived exclusively to date from environmental sources. Features of strains most like Pigmentiphaga daeguensis or Pigmentiphaga kullae from a case of suppurative otitis media in a 6-year-old female post-transplant recipient and in a human stool sample are described.
