A gamma radiation-resistant and pink-pigmented bacterial strain, designated as 17Sr1-39, was isolated from a gamma ray-irradiated soil sample collected in the Republic of Korea. Cells were Gram-stain-negative, strictly aerobic, flagellated, asporogenous, rod-shaped and methylotrophic. Results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain 17Sr1-39 was phylogenetically related to PR1016A (97.3 %), DSM 16371 (97.2 %), PMB02 (97.0 %), IER25-16 (96.6 %), 17Sr1-28 (96.6 %) and JCM 2833 (93.4 %). The G+C content calculated based on the genome sequence was 70.4 mol%. The average nucleotide identity and DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain 17Sr1-39 and , , , , and were 77.3-89.9 and 22-38.2 %, respectively. The predominant fatty acids were summed feature 8 (Cω7 and/or Cω6) and summed feature 3 (Cω7 and/or Cω6). The predominant quinone was ubiquinone 10 and the major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. Based on the data from phenotypic tests and genotypic differences between strain 17Sr1-39 and its close phylogenetic relatives, strain 17Sr1-39 represented a new species belonging to the genus , for which the name sp. nov. (=KACC 52905=NBRC 112874) is proposed.

Corynebacteria, non-spore-forming, gram-positive, aerobic or facultative anaerobic, pleomorphic bacilli, are part of the normal skin, oropharyngeal, and intestinal flora in humans. However, this microorganism can rarely be associated with invasive infections such as bone and joint infections, bacteremia, endocarditis, meningitis, liver and spleen abscesses. We present a case of bacteremic arthritis of a native knee joint caused by non-toxigenic Corynebacterium diphtheriae in a patient with alcoholic liver cirrhosis.

Introduction: Staphylococcus aureus is a gram-positive, facultatively anaerobic coccus capable of causing infectious diseases in animals and humans. Especially dangerous are multidrug-resistant forms with poor or even no response to available treatments.
Objectives: The study aimed to verify the effect of enzybiotics on the healing of S.

Objectives: Staphylococcus aureus is part of the human microbiota, but at the same time, it is capable of causing a wide range of diseases. Due to the ever-increasing resistance to antimicrobial agents and the existence of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strains, there is a real possibility of carrying even this resistant bacterium, which can subsequently cause a severe infection.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the occurrence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) at the University Hospital Olomouc (UHO) over a 10-year period (2013-2022).
Material And Methods: Data was obtained from the ENVIS LIMS laboratory information system (DS Soft, Czech Republic, Olomouc) of the Department of Microbiology, UHO, for the period 1/1/2013-31/12/2022. Standard microbiological procedures using the MALDI-TOF MS system (Biotyper Microflex, Bruker Daltonics) were applied for the identification.

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains are emerging zoonotic pathogens that are of importance not only to human but also to veterinary medicine. MRSA strains spread among humans and animals and can also be transmitted through foods. In this article, we provide a summary of the prevalence of MRSA in the Czech Republic, focusing on the One Health concept, which explores the relationships between human and animal health and the environment.
