The Isolation and Characterization of the Tribe Mimeae in Foodstuffs

“…Since that time, reports of infections caused by M&a and Herellea have increased in frequency. Illimene have been reported as the etiological agent of meningitis (Olafsson et al, 1958), septicemia (Faust et al, 1949)) endocarditis (Minzter, 1956)) osteomyelitis (Brodie et al, 1963), pneumonia (Glick et al, 1959), postburn sepsis (Graber, 1962), wound infections (Daly et al, 1962), skin lesions (Dexter et al, 1958)) and gonorrhea-like urethritis (Scott et al, 1953). Despite these reports involving the Mivuzeae, relatively little is known about these organisms. Certain similarities to the gonococci as well as the pseudomonads, their pleomorphic nature, and the fact that they have been placed in several different groups due to incorrect identification, have led to confusion of their taxonomic position (Daly et al, 1962 ;Mitchell, 1963 ;Pickett et al, 1964 ;Rosebury, 1962 ;Weed, 1961).…”
