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...
متن کاملStructure of the O-specific polysaccharide of Proteus penneri strain 41 from a new proposed serogroup O62.
O-specific polysaccharide of Proteus penneri strain 41 was studied using 1H- and 13C-NMR spectroscopy, including two-dimensional COSY, heteronuclear 13C,1H-correlation (HETCOR) and one-dimensional NOE spectroscopy, and the following structure of a non-stoichiometrically O-acetylated hexasaccharide repeating unit was established:[structure: see text] where RGlcNAc is 2-acetamido-4-O-[(S)-1-carbo...
متن کاملStructure of the O-polysaccharide of Proteus mirabilis O19 and reclassification of certain Proteus strains that were formerly classified in serogroup O19.
INTRODUCTION Bacteria of the genus Proteus are a common cause of urinary tract infections. The O-polysaccharide chain of their LPS (O-antigen) defines the serological specificity of these bacteria. Based on the immunospecificity of the O-antigens, two species, P. mirabilis and P. vulgaris, were classified into 49 O-serogroups, and more O-serogroups for strains of these species and P. penneri ha...
متن کاملProteus mirabilis RMS 203 as a new representative of the O13 Proteus serogroup.
The unique feature of some Proteus O-polysaccharides is occurrence of an amide of galacturonic acid with N(ε)-[(S/R)-1-Carboxyethyl]-L-lysine, GalA6(2S,8S/R-AlaLys). The results of the serological studies presented here, with reference to known O-antigens structures suggest that GalA6(2S,8S/R-AlaLys) or 2S,8R-AlaLys contribute to cross-reactions of O13 Proteus antisera, and Proteeae LPSs. It wa...
متن کاملComparison of different media for bacteriocine typing of Proteus mirabilis.
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.
