Purulent lymphadenitis caused by Staphylococcus argenteus, representing the first Japanese case of Staphylococcus argenteus (multilocus sequence type 2250) infection in a 12-year-old boy

Molecular characterization of clinical isolates from vascular access infection: A single‐institution study

“…Notably, we also found the S. aureus ST239-an emerging multidrug-resistant MRSA TA B L E 5 Distribution of MLST and antibiotic resistance of P. aeruginosa isolated from different types of access (Ng et al, 2009). S. argenteus comprising several CCs with many STs, especially ST2250, is the most commonly reported lineage with extensive geographic distribution, including France, Belgium, Thailand, Taiwan, Japan, and China, indicating a global spread (Argudin et al, 2016;Chantratita et al, 2016;Dupieux et al, 2015;Moradigaravand et al, 2017;Chen et al, 2018;Ohnishi et al, 2018;Li et al, 2019). The widespread S. argenteus has been isolated from both humans and animals.…”

An Update on the Novel Genera and Species and Revised Taxonomic Status of Bacterial Organisms Described in 2016 and 2017

“…New literature on novel Gram-positive taxa highlighted in the original series (1) is summarized here and in Table 3. A case of purulent lymphadenitis attributed to Staphylococcus argenteus was reported in a Japanese child (136). The authors highlight the observations that this organism is often misidentified as nonpigmented S. aureus.…”

“…The authors highlight the observations that this organism is often misidentified as nonpigmented S. aureus. Up to this time, most human cases have been found in northeastern Thailand (136). The first case report of infective endocarditis caused by Gemella taiwanensis was published by Hikone et al (137).…”

First investigation of Staphylococcus argenteus in a Brazilian collections of S. aureus isolated from bovine mastitis

“…These genomic comparisons confirmed the presence of the intact NRPS gene in S. argenteus. Otherwise, more elaborate techniques are needed to discriminate S. argenteus from S. aureus, such as multilocus sequence typing (MLST) [9,20].…”
