Title
Roseomonas gilardii subsp rosea, a pink bacterium associated with bacteremia: The first case in Thailand
Roseomonas is a pink-pigmented, non-fermentative, gram-negative coccobacilius bacterium. Human infections caused by Roseomonas are very rare. We report the first case of bacteremia associated with Roseomonas gilardii subsp rosea in Thailand. The bacterium was isolated from blood culture and identified by cellular morphology, characteristics of colonies on blood agar, extensive biochemical tests and 16S ribosomal DNA sequencing.
