New provisional serovar of Shigella boydii.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ten bacterial strains are described that give biochemical reactions characteristic of the genus Shigella but do not belong to any of the established or provisional serovars. The strains ferment mannitol and are antigenically indistinguishable. They do not possess any of the group antigens of Shigella flexneri, and it is therefore proposed that they be regarded as members of a new provisional serovar of Shigella boydii. Strain E16553 is designated as the test strain for the new serovar.

New provisional serovar (E10163) of Shigella boydii.
Eleven bacterial strains are described which give the biochemical reactions characteristic of the genus Shigella but do not belong to any of the established or provisional serovars. The strains are biochemically and serologically indistinguishable, and it is proposed that they be regarded as members of a new provisional serovar of Shigella boydii. Strain E10163 is designated as the test strain ...
متن کاملFour new provisional serovars of Shigella.
Four bacterial strains are described that possess the biochemical characteristics of Shigella species but do not belong to any of the established Shigella serovars or to any previously described provisional serovar. One strain fermented mannitol, and it is proposed that this be the type strain for a new provisional serovar of Shigella boydii. The remaining strains did not ferment mannitol and b...
متن کاملAddition of three new serotypes of Shigella boydii to the Shigella schema.
No new serotypes have been added to the Shigella schema since 1958, although several provisional serotypes have been described. We conducted biochemical and serological studies on three provisional Shigella boydii serotypes. Four strains of serotype 2710-54 from four widely separated countries, 7 strains of serotype 3615-53 from three different countries, and 31 strains of serotype 1344-78 (E10...
متن کاملConfirmation of aerogenic strains of Shigella boydii 13 and further study of Shigella serotypes by DNA relatedness.
Shigella boydii 13 strains are separable from other Shigella and Escherichia coli strains on the basis of DNA relatedness. From this observation, it was possible to confirm the existence of aerogenic S. boydii 13 strains. DNA relatedness studies also showed that strains of E. coli and strains representing all other serotypes of Shigella, including provisional strains, belong to the same genetic...
متن کاملIdentification and characterization of Shigella boydii 20 serovar nov., a new and emerging Shigella serotype.
Analysis of 163 putative Shigella isolates from Canada and the USA showed biochemical reactions consistent with Shigella species, although none of the isolates reacted with antiserum raised against any of the well-established or provisional Shigella serotypes. All these isolates, provisionally designated serotype SH108, were positive for the ipaH gene and the invasion-associated locus. All ferm...
