Staphylococcus epidermidis and a Gram negative bacillus (GNB) were isolated in blood cultures from a 68-year-old male with cancer. The GNB was suspicious for Brucella spp., but was identified using 16S rDNA sequencing as Aureimonas altamirensis. The complexity of the identification is described in this case study.
