“…Although,Ignatzschineria spp. are generally difficult to be isolated and identified in routine bacteriological procedures and MALDI TOF -MS therefore, they are identified by 16S rRNA gene amplification and sequencing (Do et al, 2021;Gupta et al, 2011). Similar to previous reports of identification of Ignatzschineria spp., the isolate in our case was identified by 16S rRNA sequence analysis.…”

We report the incidence of bacteraemia associated with Ignatzschineria spp. for the first time from animal clinical case presumably, as a post complication of maggot wound in a White Yorkshire pig. We described a clinical history of a febrile adult white Yorkshire pig and the isolation of Ignatzschineria spp. from blood sample. The isolate was characterized phenotypically and further identified by 16S rRNA sequence analysis. Its occurrence may be misdiagnosed in veterinary hospitals especially in low-resource settings, often leading to the underreporting of such emerging infections, since the diagnostic facilities are still in very primitive phase in developing countries. More information on speciation is needed with much about the epidemiology and pathogenesis of this emerging pathogen in order to explore its role in the lives of animals and humans. Novel pathogens continue to emerge in human, domestic animal, wildlife and plant populations, yet the population dynamics of this kind of biological invasion remain poorly understood. This rapid communication may redirect the scientific community working for animal and human health worldwide to unveil such rare emerging infections.
