我们报道两位由Photorhabdus种引起的软组织感染的澳洲病人。Photorhabdusspp 作为重要的昆虫病原体 ,是生物发光革兰氏阴性细菌。此细菌属于能引起在软组织寄居和在美国、澳大利亚人中传播感染的初现病原体 ,在人中的传染来源仍未知。Photorhabdus种:生物发光细菌作为新出现的 We report two Australian patients with soft tissue infections caused by Photorhabdus species. Photorhabdusspp, a major insect pathogen, is a bioluminescent Gram-negative bacterium. This bacterium belongs to the first emerging pathogens that can cause the spread of infections in soft tissues and in the United States and Australia. The source of the infection in humans remains unknown. Photorhabdus species: bioluminescent bacteria as emerging
