The isolate was confirmed as N. lactamica by analysis of a partial sequence of the 16S rRNA gene; it had reduced susceptibilities to penicillin (MIC 0.75 μ9 ml-1) and ciprofloxacin (MIC ?0.5 mg l-1). ? 2006 SGM.[SDGs]SDG3antibiotic agent; ceftriaxone; ciprofloxacin; penicillin derivative; rifampicin; RNA 16S; adult; antibiotic resistance; antibiotic sensitivity; article; bacterial infection; bacterial pneumonia; bacterium isolation; blood culture; case report; Hepatitis B virus; human; liver cirrhosis; male; minimum inhibitory concentration; Neisseria lactamica; nonhuman; nucleotide sequence; penicillin resistance; pneumonia; priority journal; Adult; Anti-Bacterial Agents; Anti-Infective Agents; Bacteremia; Base Sequence; Ceftriaxone; Ciprofloxacin; Humans; Injections, Intravenous; Liver Cirrhosis; Male; Microbial Sensitivity Tests; Neisseria lactamica; Penicillins; Pneumonia, Bacterial; RNA, Bacterial; RNA, Ribosomal, 16SBacteraemic pneumonia caused by Neisseria lactamica with reduced susceptibility to penicillin and ciprofloxacin in an adult with liver cirrhosisjournal article10.1099/jmm.0.46229-0168497372-s2.0-33747043910
