Ongoing Revolution in Bacteriology: Routine Identification of Bacteria by Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry
Piseth Seng,Michel Drancourt,Freédésrique Gouriet,Bernard La Scola,Pierre-Edouard Fournier,Jean-Marc Rolain,Didier Raoult +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) to identify both selected bacteria and bacteria in select clinical situations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Update on Tick-Borne Rickettsioses around the World: a Geographic Approach
Philippe Parola,Christopher D. Paddock,Cristina Socolovschi,Marcelo Bahia Labruna,Oleg Mediannikov,Tahar Kernif,Mohammad Yazid Abdad,John Stenos,Idir Bitam,Pierre-Edouard Fournier,Didier Raoult +10 more
TL;DR: The current knowledge on tick-borne rickettsiae and ricksettsioses is presented using a geographic approach toward the epidemiology of these diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Epidemiology and Control of Acinetobacter baumannii in Health Care Facilities
TL;DR: Acinetobacter baumannii infection, such as bacteremia or pneumonia in patients in the intensive care unit who are undergoing intubation, do not seem to be associated with a higher attributable mortality rate or an increased length of hospital stay.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative Genomics of Multidrug Resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii
Pierre-Edouard Fournier,David Vallenet,Valérie Barbe,Stéphane Audic,Hiroyuki Ogata,Laurent Poirel,Hervé Richet,Catherine Robert,Sophie Mangenot,Chantal Abergel,Patrice Nordmann,Jean Weissenbach,Didier Raoult,Jean-Michel Claverie +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a comparative genomic approach to identify the complete repertoire of resistance genes exhibited by the multidrug-resistant A. baumannii strain AYE, which is epidemic in France, as well as investigate the mechanisms of their acquisition by comparison with the fully susceptible A. bayannii species SDF, associated with human body lice.

TL;DR: It is shown that the use of culturomics allows the culture of organisms corresponding to sequences previously not assigned, which doubles the number of species isolated at least once from the human gut.
