RESUMO
bioquímicas, das infecções que causam nos animais, e de sua tendência em produzir
emergent human pathogen, showing an important role as an opportunist agent, and being
responsible for diseases in nosocomial infection and outbreak. These outbreaks are
individuals; lately, they have increased the publication number and notifications of serious
illnesses caused by these bacteria, particularly in individuals with underlying illnesses such
cause serious and some times fatal infections as: pneumonitis, sinusitis, septicemia,
their biochemical properties, the infections they cause in animals, and their tendency to
equisimilis, outbreaks.
