چکیده

1. The hemolytic variety of streptococcus is homogeneous, consisting of members that are nearly identical. 2. This homogeneity is most strikingly displayed in the behavior of these streptococci in the complement fixation reaction, all the strains studied reacting in a nearly identical way with all the antisera.

STUDIES ON BACTERIOPHAGES OF HEMOLYTIC STREPTOCOCCI I. FACTORS INFLUENCING THE INterACTION OF PHAGE AND SUSCEPTmLE

The bacteriophages of ~-hemolytic streptococci studied by Evans (1-4) were classified into several races or types. I t is clear from this early work that the phages demonstrated some degree of specificity for streptococcal groups. For instance, a bacteriophage which lysed almost all group C streptococci did not lyse group A streptococci. However, much of this work was done prior to the serologi...

Antibiotic Resistance of Non- pneumococcal Streptococci and Its Clinical Impact

The taxonomy of streptococci has undergone major changes during the last two decades. The present classification is based on both phenotypic and genotypic data. Phylogenetic classification of streptococci is based on 16S rRNA sequences [1], and it forms the backbone of the overall classification system of streptococci. Phenotypic properties are also important, especially for clinical microbiolo...

Precipitation and Complement Fixation Reactions with Residue Antigens in the Non-hemolytic Streptococcus Group

The applicability to the non-hemolytic streptococci of the technique used for the extraction of a soluble precipitating substance from the hemolytic streptococci is demonstrated. With this substance as antigen, it is demonstrated by means of precipitation and complement fixation that the non-hemolytic streptococci form an antigenically distinct, but entirely heterogeneous group. Such cross-reac...

A Classification of Non-hemolytic Streptococci

1. No connection can be demonstrated between grouping of non-hemolytic streptococci based upon fermentation reactions, and grouping based upon immunological reactions. 2. A classification of non-hemolytic streptococci can be effected by studying the complement fixation reactions between the streptococci and their antisera. 3. The arrangement of the streptococci in such a classification depends ...
