CASE REPORT

First Comprehensively Documented Case of Paracoccus yeei Infection in a Human

Guido Funke,1* Reinhard Frodl,1 and Hartmut Sommer2

Received 2 February 2004/ Returned for modification 14 March 2004/ Accepted 21 March 2004

Paracoccus yeei was isolated in pure culture from an aerobic blood culture and bulla fluid from a 67-year-old male. The biochemical identification scheme for this recently described species is outlined. Because of its reaction pattern it is not unlikely that P. yeei is underdiagnosed.
