Generalized Transduction in Corynebacterium renale

Generalized transduction in Corynebacterium renale.

A phage, designated RP28, was obtained which carried out generalized transduction in Corynebacterium renale, and 11 different auxotrophic markers were all transduced.

Experimental model of corynebacterium renale pyelonephritis produced in mice.

Corynebacterium renale type I (strain 115), 1.7 X 10(7) to 4.5 X 10(7) organisms, introduced intravenously into mice disappeared from the blood less than 24 h after inoculation and did not produce pyelonephritis. The same strain, 1 X 10(7) to 5 X 10(7) organisms, inoculated into the urinary bladder of mice was not recovered from the blood in any of the mice, but caused pyelonephritis accompanie...

Experimental Rat model for Corynebacterium renale-induced pyelonephritis.

The laboratory rat was able to serve as a model for ascending pyelonephritis after implantation of a zinc disk coated with Corynebacterium renale into the urinary bladder because it satisfied three different criteria for infection. The production of an alkaline urine and the presence of significant numbers of C. renale in the kidneys, as well as distinct pyelonephritic lesions as revealed by hi...
