چکیده

The effect of a variety of nutrient bases on the production of bacteriocines by 10 standard Cradock-Watson types of Proteus mirabilis has been investigated. Differences in yield of greater than 10,000 fold were observed. Maximum yields were obtained with proteose peptone no. 3 (Difco) and a medium containing this with oxgall (Difco) as an antiswarming agent was developed for routine typing.

Bacteriocine typing of Proteus.

A method of typing isolates of Proteus mirabilis and Proteus vulgaris is described based on the sensitivity of the organisms to bacteriocine. Twelve standard proteocine producing strains were selected from a large number of isolates tested, and from these liquid proteocine preparations were prepared. The sensitivities of 1805 isolates to these 12 preparations were then determined and none was f...

An evaluation of two methods of bacteriocine typing of organisms of the genus Proteus.

An assessment of two simple methods of typing Proteus isolates using bacteriocines is described. The methods chosen were those of Cradock-Watson and Al-Jumaili. It has been shown that the use of liquid bacteriocine preparations is more satisfactory than methods involving proteocine production in solid media. For example, no non-typable isolates were encountered and a large number of strains wer...

An evaluation of three methods of typing organisms of the genus Proteus.

An assessment of three simple methods of typing Proteus strains is described. The methods chosen were biochemical typing, bacteriocine typing, and typing by means of the Dienes phenomenon. Dienes typing was deemed to be superior to biochemical typing and bacteriocine typing.A brief discussion on the relationship between the Dienes phenomenon and bacteriocine production is appended.

Bacteriophage typing of Proteus mirabilis, Proteus vulgaris, and Proteus morganii.

A bacteriphage typing scheme for differentiating Proteus isolated from clinical specimens was developed. Twenty-one distinct patterns of lysis were seen when 15 bacteriophages isolated on 8 Proteus mirabilis, 1 P. vulgaris, and 1 P. morganii were used to type 162 of 189 (85.7%) P. mirabilis and P. vulgaris isolates. Seven phages isolated on 3 P. morganii were used to type 13 of 19 (68.4%) P. mo...
