Colicine types of Shigella sonnei isolated in Hong Kong.
Two-hundred and twenty-five strains of Shigella sonnei isolated from sporadic cases of bacillary dysentery were subjected to colicine typing. The result showed that types 15 and 12 were the prevailing types in Hong Kong and two new types which did not fit in with the colicine patterns of the current types were observed. A marked increase in the numbers of strains concurrently resistant to chlor...
متن کاملAntimicrobial resistance in Shigella flexneri and Shigella sonnei in Hong Kong, 1986 to 1995.
Three hundred and thirty-three Shigella isolates obtained in 1986 to 1995 were tested for their susceptibilities to 19 antimicrobial agents. Nalidixic acid resistance had emerged in 59.6% of Shigella flexneri isolates during 1994 to 1995, with all tested resistant isolates having the mutation in gyrA encoding the Ser-83 alteration. Multiresistance (resistance to four or more agents) was more co...
متن کاملcolicine types, biochemical types and drug resistance pattern of 154 strains of shigella sonnei isolated in iran
the colicine types, biotypes and resistance pattern to antibacterial drugs of 154 strains of shigella sonnei isolated in two different geographical areas of iran, are presented. while a difference in the predominant biotype was observed in the two areas, the resistance pattern and the colicine types were found to be almost identical.
متن کاملT-related bacteriophages isolated from Shigella sonnei.
The properties of three T-related phages-35, 55, and 3201-isolated from Shigella sonnei were studied. They were similar with respect to morphology of plaques, duration of the latent periods, lysis inhibition effect, and serological characteristics. These phages closely resembled the T-even phages. Phages 3201, 35, and 55 had the same host range and receptor specificity as phage T2.
متن کاملA method for typing Shigella sonnei, using colicine production as a marker.
Infection with Shigella sonnei is the most common identifiable cause of diarrhoea in this country at present, and the absence of a satisfactory method of typing the organism has greatly hampered the study of its mode of spread. Bojlen (1934), studying the biochemical reactions of 1,786 Sonne cultures, isolated from 741 patients in Denmark, described four biochemical types based upon the ferment...
