Abstract
In the present study 13 Arcanobacterium pluranimalium strains isolated from various
animal origin could successfully be identified phenotypically by matrix-assisted laser
desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and genotypically
by sequencing 16S rDNA and the pluranimaliumlysin encoding gene pla. The
detection of mass spectra by MALDI-TOF MS and the novel genotypic approach using gene
pla might help to identify A. pluranimalium in future and might elucidate the role this
species plays in infections of animals.
