ABSTRACTWe report on the first case of fatal septicemia caused byBordetella hinzii. The causative organism exhibited a biochemical profile identical to that of Bordetella aviumwith three commercial identification systems (API 20E, API 20 NE, and Vitek GNI+ card). However, its cellular fatty acid profile was not typical for either B. aviumor previously reported strains of B. hinzii. Presumptive identification of the patient's isolate was accomplished by traditional biochemical testing, and definitive identification was achieved by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. Phenotypic features useful in distinguishing B. hinziifrom B. aviumwere production of alkali from malonate and resistance to several antimicrobial agents. |
