Biotypes of Proteus rettgeri.

Examination of 729 isolates of Proteus rettgeri showed that 674 reacted positively in tests for phenylalanine deamination, indole production, growth on citrate, and acid production from meso-inositol, and negatively for L-ornithine decarboxylation and acid production from lactose, maltose, D-xylose, and L-arabinose. Only 51 isolates differed in one, and four differed in two of these ten reactio...

Biotypes of Gardnerella vaginalis.

A simple and reproducible scheme for identifying biotypes of Gardnerella vaginalis has been developed, based on reactions for lipase, hippurate hydrolysis, and beta-galactosidase. Among a total of 359 strains tested, eight biotypes were observed, the most common ones being types 1 (beta-galactosidase positive, lipase positive, hippurate positive), 2 (beta-galactosidase negative, lipase positive...

To cite: Mestre T, Marques Pinto G. BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/bcr-2014204787 DESCRIPTION The human papillomavirus (HPV) can infect the skin and mucous membranes. Common warts, filiform warts, epidermodysplasia verruciformis, mosaic warts and plantar warts represent clinical manifestations of infection with HPV. Giant warts in the hands are very r...

Biotypes of Arcanobacterium haemolyticum.

Colony morphology, beta hemolysis on horse blood agar, beta-glucuronidase activity, and ability to ferment sucrose and/or trehalose defined two biotypes of Arcanobacterium haemolyticum. One, the smooth type, grew as smooth, beta-hemolytic colonies and was beta-glucuronidase negative but often fermented sucrose and/or trehalose, while the other, the rough type, grew as rough colonies and was non...
