O-serotyping Providencia alcalifaciens.
The O-serotyping scheme for Providencia was tested on Providencia alcalifaciens isolates collected mostly from two hospitals. The specificites of the somatic (O) antigens of P. alcalifaciens were found to be different from those of Providencia stuartii, and separation of the Providencia typing scheme to allow separate typing of each species led to more efficient typing. All but 4 of 86 isolates...
متن کاملPathogenesis of Providencia alcalifaciens-induced diarrhea.
Providencia alcalifaciens is a member of the family Enterobacteriaceae. There are reports that P. alcalifaciens can cause diarrhea, but the mechanism(s) by which it causes diarrhea is known. We studied P. alcalifaciens isolated from a child and two adults with diarrhea for enteropathogenicity. The three isolates did not exhibit any characteristic adherence to cultured HEp-2 cell monolayers, and...
متن کاملO serotyping of Providencia stuartii isolates collected from twelve hospitals.
A collection of 829 isolates of Providencia stuartii, mostly from urological specimens of patients in 12 hospitals, were O serotyped. Hospitals varied in serotype distribution, but most isolates (97%) fell into one or another of 14 O types of P. stuartii. One type (O63) was found in 10 hospitals, and six types (O4, O17, O25, O52, O55, O56) were found in 5 or more hospitals. These seven types we...

متن کاملSerological characterization of the O-specific polysaccharide of Providencia alcalifaciens O23.
INTRODUCTION The genus Providencia belongs to the Enterobacteriaceae family and currently consists of five species: P. alcalifaciens, P. heimbachae, P. rettgerii, P. rustigianii and P. stuartii. The serological classification scheme of P. alcalifaciens, P. rustigianii and P. stuartii includes 63 O-serogroups and 30 H-serogroups. The O-antigenic specificity is defined by the structure of the O-a...
