  • Title: Indirect immunofluorescence as a diagnostic tool in a prosthetic heart valve endocarditis due to actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans and Staphylococcus epidermidis.
    Author: Braconier JH, Söderström C.
    Journal: Scand J Infect Dis; 1990; 22(6):739-41. PubMed ID: 2284581.
    Abstract:
    A late prosthetic valve endocarditis due to Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans and Staphylococcus epidermidis in a 72-year-old man is reported. A simple indirect immunofluorescence technique was used to confirm the etiological diagnosis. This test may be useful when diagnostic problems occur in infections with microorganisms of uncertain pathogenic importance.
