Endocarditis caused by Abiotrophia species
Scand J Infect Dis.

Abstract
Two cases of endocarditis with nutritionally variant streptococci are presented. Such strains have recently been included in the new genus Abiotrophia. A total of 12 additional Abiotrophia strains, including the type strains of Abiotrophia defectiva and Abiotrophia adiacens, were characterized in order to comment on their microbiological characteristics.
