Serotyping of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus.
Serotyping of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus by direct immunofluorescence and a capsule swelling reaction is described. One hundred isolates, including 12 from an outbreak in a neonatal department, were studied. Ninety five per cent of the isolates were typable by immunofluorescence and could be divided into 30 separate types, but 42.1% of typable strains, including 11 from the outbreak, were of o...
متن کاملChromosome mapping in Acinetobacter calcoaceticus.
RP4-mediated conjugation was used to map the loci of 23 different mutations on a circular linkage group in Acinetobacter calcoaceticus EBF65/65. The resulting genetic map indicated that the chromosomal organization of A. calcoaceticus differed from that of members of the enteric group of bacteria and was similar to Pseudomonas in showing an absence of clustering of functionally related genes.
متن کاملDefining resistance in Acinetobacter calcoaceticus-Acinetobacter baumannii complex strains.
We read with great interest the recent publication of Tien and colleagues in which they describe the antimicrobial susceptibilities of a large number of Acinetobacter baumannii-Acinetobacter calcoaceticus strains isolated from a medical center in Taiwan (1). They suggested that antimicrobial susceptibility was negatively associated with virulent potential because more-susceptible strains were r...
متن کاملIn vitro activity of three tetracycline antibiotics against Acinetobacter calcoaceticus subsp. anitratus.
The in vitro activity of three tetracycline antibiotics against 127 strains of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus (Herella vaginicola) were compared. Almost all strains were susceptible to minocycline and doxycycline, whereas most strains were resistant to tetracycline.
متن کاملJs-lactamase and 8-lactam Antibiotics Resistance in Acinetobacter Anitratum (syn.: A. Calcoaceticus)
The cephalosporin fl-lactamase (cephalosporinase) produced by Acinetobacter was studied. The enzyme was partially purified by means of column chromatography and its properties were investigated. The enzyme was induced by benzylpenicillin, 6-aminopenicillanic acid and cephaloridine. Its molecular weight is 30,000, its optimal temperature 40°C, and its optimal pH 7.25-.7.50. Substrate specificity...
