Abstract

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE or lupus) is a chronic autoimmune disease involving multiple organ systems. This study aims to identify uncommon bacteria like Pseudomonas luteola as a human pathogen isolate from systemic lupus erythematosus patients in Mosul. This study involved 60 SLE patients who had been diagnosed at Ibn-Sena Educational Hospital in Mosul City from November 2021 to April 2022. Blood and MacConkey agar have been used to culture the samples. 55 samples (91.7%) showed positive results (grew the bacteria). We identified one Pseudomonas luteola 1.81% from positive growth of urine culture. It was identified by the biochemical test, API E20, and Vitek-2 system and had its identification verified using 16S rRNA-based molecular methods. The bacteria were resistant to meropenem, ceftriaxone, cefotaxime, gentamycin, doxycycline, ciprofloxacin, and trimethoprim, while they had sensitive to levofloxacin.
