Identification of capsular antigens in Serratia marcescens.
Previous studies with 31 strains of Serratia marcescens, including 28 reference O-serotype strains, have indicated that 19 of them have an acidic polysaccharide which copurifies with lipopolysaccharide during phenol-water extraction. Polysaccharide in crude extracts from 18 of the 19 strains was precipitated with Cetavlon (hexadecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide), and capsules were demonstrated aro...
متن کاملThreonine degradation by Serratia marcescens.
The wild strain of Serratia marcescens rapidly degraded threonine and formed aminoacetone in a medium containing glucose and urea. Extracts of this strain showed high threonine dehydrogenase and "biosynthetic" threonine deaminase activities, but no threonine aldolase activity. Threonine dehydrogenase-deficient strain Mu-910 was selected among mutants unable to grow on threonine as the carbon so...
متن کاملEndophthalmitis caused by Serratia marcescens.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE To describe the clinical features and treatment outcomes of 10 patients with culture-proven Serratia marcescens endophthalmitis. PATIENTS AND METHODS Records from the microbiology laboratory for the period from January 1980 through June 1993 were reviewed. Ten patients were identified who had positive anterior chamber or vitreous cultures and clinical signs of endopht...
متن کاملRAPID IDENTIFICATION OF Vibrio cholera-01 BY COAGGLUTINATION TEST USING MONO-SPECIFIC ANTIBODY
Mono-specific antisera against Vibrio cholera Ogawa NIH-43 and Vibrio cholera Inaba 35-A3 were prepared from rabbit hyperimmune sera by absorbing against a heterologous strain. Using ammonium sulphate precipitation procedure, gamma globulins were purified and concentrated. To visualize antigen-antibody reaction, gamma globulins were conjugated to Staphylococcus aureus cowan-l (NCTC: 8325) ...
متن کاملRapid laboratory identification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae by coagglutination.
We compared the Phadebact Gonococcus Test with conventional methods in identifying 210 strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Of these, 209 strains were correctly identified (99.5%).
