Staphylococcus epidermidis and a Gram negative bacillus (GNB) were isolated in blood cultures from a 68-year-old male with cancer. The GNB was suspicious for Brucella spp., but was identified using 16S rDNA sequencing as Aureimonas altamirensis. The complexity of the identification is described in this case study.

Article Synopsis
- - White Plague Type II (WPL II) is a fast-spreading disease impacting coral species, but its causing pathogen and treatment are still unclear.
- - Research identified two pathogens, Aureimonas altamirensis and Aurantimonas coralicida, that infect the coral Pocillopora damicornis, leading to symptoms like bleaching and tissue loss.
- - Ammonia degradation has been found to lessen the impact of these pathogens, suggesting it could be a key factor in managing WPL II and promoting coral health by supporting beneficial bacteria.
Genomic Characterization of C2P003-A Specific Member of the Microbiome of Trees Tolerant to Ash Dieback.

was isolated from a wound culture and initially misidentified as by the VITEK® 2 system. The VITEK-MS did not provide identification whereas the Bruker MALDI-ToF MS system and 16-S sequencing revealed a clear identification, which highlights the importance of inclusion of species in databases for accurate and fast identification of bacteria.

Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), a common endocrine disorder with rising prevalence in pregnancy, has been reported to be associated with alteration of gut microbiota in recent years. However, the role of gut microbiome in GDM physiopathology remains unclear. This pilot study aims to characterize the alteration of gut microbiota in GDM on species-level resolution and evaluate the relationship with occurrence of GDM.
