First isolation of Aerococcus viridans from clinical specimens collected on a pig farm in Poland

Abstract

Successful retrieval of Aerococcus viridans from porcine clinical specimens has been rarely described, and data has only been obtained from a few swine-producing countries. Therefore, the aim of this study was the isolation of A. viridans recovered from a specimen originating from a commercial pig farm located in Poland.
