New York University School of Law has committed itself to legal education for a global economy, and the International Tax Program (ITP) is an important component of that commitment.

Bacteroides fragilis is one of the most common causes of anaerobic infective endocarditis, although overall quite rare. It is usually associated with large valvular vegetations and peripheral embolization (38). Thrombophlebitis and congestive heart failure are common complications as well (73).
Anaerobic infection. Anaerobic infections are caused by anaerobic bacteria. Obligately anaerobic bacteria do not grow on solid media in room air (0.04% carbon dioxide and 21% oxygen); facultatively anaerobic bacteria can grow in the presence or absence of air. Microaerophilic bacteria do not grow at all aerobically or grow poorly, but grow better under 10% carbon dioxide or anaerobically.
