Nocardia is aerobic, partially acid-fast, found in soil, causing pulmonary infections and brain abscesses in immunocompromised individuals; it can cause pneumonia after trauma in immunocompetent hosts; treatment is with trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole.
Nocardia, aerobik, kısmen aside dayanıklı (akciğer enfeksiyonları, beyin abseleri) ve toprakta bulunur; immünkompromize hastalarda pnömoniye, immünkompetanlarda ise travma sonrası enfeksiyona neden olur; tedavisi trimetropim-sülfametoksazol ile yapılır.
