Identification of Leptotrichia goodfellowii infective endocarditis by next-generation sequencing of 16S rDNA amplicons

The oral aerotolerant anaerobe Leptotrichia goodfellowii is an unusual cause of endocarditis and is amenable to treatment with β-lactam antibiotics. Because this organism is difficult to identify by conventional methods, molecular detection is a key diagnostic modality. Broad-range 16S rDNA PCR foll...
