Abstract
Propionimicrobium lymphophilum is a non-sporulating anaerobic Gram-positive bacillus belonging to the family Propionibacteriaceae and is part of the microbiota of the skin and the human urinary tract. Originally described as Bacillus lymphophilum in 1916, after several taxonomic changes, which included Corynebacterium lymphophilum and P. lymphophilum, the current nomenclature of P. lymphophilum has been adopted [1]. After reviewing the literature, five cases of infections caused by this microorganism have been published, among which only two of them corresponded to urinary tract infections (UTIs) [2-5].
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
