Rapid Identification by MALDITOF of Neisseria elongata Subspecies nitroreducens in an Endocarditis Case
Neisseria elongata subspecies nitroreducens is considered to be an important pathogen responsible for infective endocarditis, even if it is infrequently reported. We report the first case of endocarditis in Italy due to N. elongata subsp. nitroreducens.
