DiplococcusThe culture of cerebrospinal fluid revealed gram-negative
diplococcus, which was confirmed to be N.
coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and
Diplococcus pneumoniae from nasal swabs collected from camels in Sudan.
S pneumoniae is a gram-positive
diplococcus frequently implicated in sinusitis, acute otitis media, and community-acquired pneumonia among outpatients and in meningitis among hospitalized patients.
The Chicago Pathological Society held its regular monthly meeting on October 12, 1925, on the topics of
diplococcus in measles, compression myelitis secondary to Echinococcus disease of vertebrae and kidney, and further observations on the ring precipitation test for syphilis.
meningitidis), an encapsulated gram-negative
diplococcus that is a pathogen exclusive to humans.
catarrhalis is a Gram-negative, aerobic
diplococcus, which has undergone several changes in nomenclature and periodic changes in its perceived status as either a commensal or a pathogen [2].
Cocci were presented by nonpathogenic cultures--classes
Diplococcus (23.833.3%), Streptococcus (23.8-28.6%), including [alpha]-streptococcus (9.5-14.3%), [gamma]-streptococcus (4.8%) and [gamma]-staphylococcus (14.3-19.0%).
meningitidis antigen in the CSF or blood; presence of Gram-negative
diplococcus in the CSF; or association or not of purpura fulminans with meningitis.
Moraxella catarrhalis, also known as Micrococcus catarrhalis, Neisseria catarrhalis, or Branhamella catarrhalis is a gram-negative, aerobic, oxidase-positive
diplococcus. It is a common cause of otitis media, sinusitis and laryngitis.1-3 It also causes bronchitis and pneumonia in children and in adults with underlying chronic lung disease and occasionally bacteraemia and meningitis, especially in immunocompromised persons.1,2,4,5
Kenneth Gould M D et al (20) study of 20 patients with purulent pericarditis, 5 patients had
Diplococcus pneumoniae in blood culture and pericardial fluid, 5 patients had aerobic Gram negative bacilli in blood culture, coagulase positive Staph aureus was isolated from 4 patients in blood and pericardial fluid, anerobic organisms were isolated from 3 of the patients, in 1 patient polymicrobial bacteraemia with Haemophilus species and Peptococcus organisms were isolated, in 3 patients no organisms were isolated.
Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a Gram-negative
diplococcus that may be found in the urethra, cervix, and anal canal.
This gram negative
diplococcus infects the human urogenital tract, eye, throat, and rectum, and can cause systemic infections.
