Granulicatella infection: diagnosis and management Cargill, James S. and Scott, Katharine S. and Gascoyne-Binzi, Deborah and Sandoe, Jonathan A. T.,, 61, 755-761 (2012), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/jmm.0.039693-0, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 0022-2615, abstract= Granulicatella species, along with the genus Abiotrophia, were originally known as ‘nutritionally variant streptococci’. They are a normal component of the oral flora, but have been associated with a variety of invasive infections in man and are most noted as a cause of bacterial endocarditis.

We review here the published data concerning diagnosis and treatment of Granulicatella infection, and include some observations from local cases, including four cases of endocarditis., language=, type=
