Classification. Aerococcus urinae is a member of the bacterial genus Aerococcus.The bacterium is a Gram-positive, catalase-negative coccus growing in clusters. Isolates of this genus were originally isolated in 1953 from samples collected in the air and dust of occupied rooms and were distinguished by their tetrad cellular arrangement Aerococcus urinae is a pathogen that rarely causes severe or fatal infections. We describe four cases of severe A. urinae bloodstream infections. All patients had underlying urologic conditions. Urine cultures, however, were negative.

A prospective observational treatment study of aerococcal
Med alfa-streptokocker (engelska viridans-streptococci) avses ett antal olika arter av aeroba/fakultativt anaeroba grampositiva katalasnegativa kocker med liknande fenotypiska egenskaper som sammanförts till en grupp mer av praktiska än strikt taxonomiska skäl. The two Aerococcus species are well recognized etiological agents of urinary tract infection, both species have been associated with bacteremic/septicemic episodes, and in rare instances, A A. urinae and A. sanguinicola were more common than previously thought and grew in almost 1 % of all urine samples. The patients were of old age and gender was almost equally distributed between men and women. Almost 80 % of the patients had symptoms of a urinary tract infection in one of the studies.
A descriptive clinical-microbiological study was conducted on the presence of A. sanguinicola causing urinary tract infections. 2018-10-01
The disease caused by Aerococcus has been underestimated, but mass spectrometry could be a simple method for identifying this pathogen. In this study, we report 2 cases of urinary tract infection by Aerococcus sanguinicola.

A. sanguinicola and A. urinae had low ceftriaxone, penicillin, and vancomycin MICs.
This bacterium is mainly associated with urinary tract infections (UTI) especially in elderly patients with predisposing conditions.

The disease caused by Aerococcus has been underestimated, but mass spectrometry could be a simple method for identifying this pathogen. In this study, we report 2 cases of urinary tract infection by Aerococcus sanguinicola. A descriptive clinical-microbiological study Almost 80 % of patients with aerococcal bacteruria had symptoms of a urinary tract infection. Several antibiotics, including nitrofurantoin and amoxicillin, could serve as treatment options. Resistance against ciprofloxacin was recorded, especially in A. sanguinicolaisolates.
