“…A recent study performed in an intensive care unit in Brazil ( 21 ) showed clonal dissemination of D acidovorans in hospital settings using molecular confirmation. They isolated 24 D acidovorans strains in 21 patients from deep tracheal aspirate samples.…”

“…In this context, diseases like pneumonia, intravascular catheter-associated bacteremia, endocarditis, peritonitis, ocular infections, and urinary tract infections have been reported in the literature [ 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 ]. Due to its attribute as an environmental organism with a great affinity to water and damp surroundings [ 37 ], its occurrence was also described for water distribution systems in medical institutions [ 38 ]. It was also proven that Delftia acidovorans and other species of the Pseudomonadaceae family are often found in biofilms of dental unit waterlines and that they are prone to be transmitted with aerosols and splatters, generated by working unit handpieces [ 39 ].…”

“…and as Delftia (spp.) has often been associated with infections in immunosuppressed individuals, we want to emphasize that in the present case the infection was observed in a young and otherwise healthy woman without any pre-existing diseases [ 32 , 34 , 37 ]. It cannot be excluded that there is a real risk for an opportunistic bacterial infection from dental unit waterlines even in young and healthy patients if possibly harmless environmental bacteria are transferred to an open wound.…”

“…Megfigyelték, hogy a kórházban használt colistin és tigecyclin mennyiségével arányosan növekedett a C. indologenes-fertőzések gyakorisága [14]. A D. acidovorans colistinrezisztens [28], ahogy az Elizabethkingia fajok és az O. anthropi is [17,22].…”
