Genomic characterization of an uncommon Delftia acidovorans isolate obtained from a Bulgarian immunocompetent outpatient diagnosed with bronchitis.

Delftia acidovorans is an aerobic, non-fermenting Gram-negative bacterium (NFGNB), found in soil, water and hospital environments. It is rarely clinically significant, most commonly affecting hospitalized or immunocompromised patients. The present study aimed to explore the genomic characteristics of a Bulgarian clinical D.

Pulmonary exacerbation due to colistin-resistant Stenotrophomonas maltophilia in a Bulgarian cystic fibrosis patient.

In patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) lung damage secondary to chronic infection is the main cause of death. Treatment of lung disease to reduce the impact of infection, inflammation and subsequent lung injury is therefore of major importance. As Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the dominant pathogen in CF patients it has been the major target of all treatment strategies, possible antibiotic regimens and recommendations for years.
