چکیده

An additional method for differentiating between Campylobacter fetus subsp. jejuni and C. fetus subsp. intestinalis is reported. Strains of C. fetus subsp. jejuni (18/20) were shown to hydrolyze hippurate in the 2-h rapid test, whereas strains of C. fetus subsp. intestinalis did not.

Hippurate hydrolysis by and triphenyltetrazolium tolerance of Campylobacter fetus.

A rapid test of hippurate hydrolysis and a test of tolerance to triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) were studied in 315 strains of Campylobacter fetus subsp. jejuni to determine their usefulness for biotyping this organism and for distinguishing it from C. fetus subsp. intestinalis. Of the 315 strains tested, 84% hydrolyzed hippurate and 97% were resistant to TTC. Ability to hydrolyze hippurate...

Campylobacter biotyping scheme of epidemiological value.

A biotyping scheme has been developed which utilises 12 tests, including growth at 28 degrees C, hippurate hydrolysis, and 10 resistotyping tests. These tests are arranged in groups of three, and by assigning a numerical value to each positive test a four figure code is produced for each strain. The order of the tests is such that campylobacters are both speciated and biotyped . This scheme rec...

Two-dimensional thin-layer chromatography for the specific detection of hippurate hydrolysis by microorganisms.

Glycine, one of the end products of hippurate hydrolysis by microorganisms, was detected by a rapid, specific technique utilizing two-dimensional thin-layer chromatography. A loopful of growth of each organism from its suitable agar medium was washed, suspended, and incubated with 0.1% sodium hippurate for 30 min at 37 degrees C. The supernatant of the incubated suspension from each organism wa...
