“…A case series by Lin et al has shown that the most effective antimicrobials were fluoroquinolones, β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combinations, carbapenems, and aminoglycosides [10] . One recently published case report of early prosthetic valve endocarditis presented a multidrug-resistant S. paucimobilis that was only susceptible to tigecycline [16] . Our patient was treated with a 6-week meropenem regimen in the lack of an antibiogram to this germ.…”

“…Comparably, another retrospective study addressing the epidemiology and the prognosis of healthcare-associated endocarditis in China included a single case of infective endocarditis caused by S. paucimobilis [20] . And finally, Saboe et al has recently published a fatal case of MDR S. paucimobilis causing an early prosthetic valve endocarditis with multivalvular involvement and perivalvular abscess, that was only sensitive to tigecycline [16] .…”

“…Reports described S. paucimobilis in clinical specimens, blood, urine, endotracheal aspirates, bronchoalveolar lavage, and cerebrospinal fluid of patients with septicemia, meningitis, lower respiratory tract infections, and ventilator-associated pneumonia (Rohilla et al, 2021). Cases of early prosthetic valve infective endocarditis caused by MDR S. paucimobilis have been reported (Saboe et al, 2021). The S. paucimobilis (ILH14) isolated here was identified using the MALDI-TOF MS technique with phenotyping of MDR antibiotics the quinolone, penicillin, aminoglycoside, polymyxin, tetracycline, and oxazolidinone classes.…”

“…The sphingans group has applications in a variety of industries as food, cement, personal care, abiotic stress tolerance, bioremediation, and biodegradation, etc. Malleobactin is a member of the siderophore family and has an important role in plant resistance to pathogens (Xiao et al, 2020;Saboe et al, 2021). Zeaxanthin has significant commercial value for its antioxidant potential and is widely used in the food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries.…”
