Comparison of two methods for serotyping Ureaplasma urealyticum clinical isolates

A newly developed enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method using monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to the 14 serotypes of Ureaplasma urealyticum was compared to immunofluorescence assay (IFA) for serotyping U. urealyticum clinical isolates. Of the 102 vaginal isolates of U. urealyticum, five strains were lost and were excluded from analysis. Of the 97 strains analysed, a total of 86 (89%) strains were typeable by ELISA and a total of 89 (92%) strains were typeable by IFA. Eighty-six strains were typeable by both methods, three by IFA only and eight strains were not typeable neither by ELISA nor by IFA. Of the 86 strains typeable by both methods, complete concordance in serotyping results was found. The three strains not typeable by ELISA were typeable as serotype 4 by IFA. These three strains were reanalysed by ELISA after major modifications of the antigen preparation and were typeable as serotype 4. In conclusion, the ELISA was found suitable for serotyping clinical isolates. However, since the ELISA had a somewhat lower performance than IFA, strains not typeable by ELISA, should be retested by another technique such as IFA.     

Characteristics of poliovirus strains isolated in Poland during 1981-1989 using monoclonal antibodies and determination of nucleotide sequence in viral RNA]

In this study currently used methods for analysis of poliovirus with monoclonal antibodies and determination of nucleotide sequence in viral RNA are presented. Twenty one strains of polioviruses isolated in Poland between 1981 and 1989 were tested. Nineteen of these strains were determined as to be derived from attenuated strains, including 10 strains isolated from 9 poliomyelitis patients. Two strains, one of type 1 isolated in 1984 and one of type 2 isolated in 1982 from children with meningitis were determined to be wild strains. The results obtained with monoclonal antibodies were confirmed by partial nucleotide sequence by dideoxy primer extension method. Analysis of poliovirus strains circulating in Poland in last 15 years suggest that the elimination of wild strains was achieved and sporadic isolation of wild strains is due most probably to imported strains.     

Lactic acid bacteria isolated from soy sauce mash in Thailand

Fourteen sphere-shaped and 30 rod-shaped lactic acid bacteria were isolated from soy sauce mash of two factories in Thailand. These strains were separated into two groups, Group A and Group B, by cell shape and DNA-DNA similarity. Group A contained 14 tetrad-forming strains, and these strains were identified as Tetragenococcus halophilus by DNA similarity. Group B contained 30 rod-shaped bacteria, and they were further divided into four Subgroups, B1, B2, B3, and B4, and three ungrouped strains by phenotypic characteristics and DNA similarity. Subgroup B1 contained 16 strains, and these strains were identified as Lactobacillus acidipiscis by DNA similarity. Subgroup B2 included two strains, and the strains were identified as Lactobacillus farciminis by DNA similarity. Subgroup B3 contained five strains. The strains had meso-diaminopimelic acid in the cell wall, and were identified as Lactobacillus pentosus by DNA similarity. The strains tested produced DL-lactic acid from D-glucose. Subgroup B4 contained four strains. The strains had meso-diaminopimelic acid in the cell wall, and they were identified as Lactobacillus plantarum by DNA similarity. Two ungrouped strains were homofermentative, and one was heterofermentative. They showed a low degree of DNA similarity with the type strains tested, and were left unnamed. The distribution of lactic acid bacteria in soy sauce mash in Thailand is discussed.     

Identification of Isolates of Clostridium perfringens Types C and D by Agglutination and Fluorescent-Antibody Methods

Agglutination and fluorescent-antibody methods were employed for screening Clostridium perfringens types C and D from 393 isolates of this organism. All of 50 strains which were isolated in Japan and were agglutinable with an antiserum prepared against a stock strain of type C no. 3182 toxigenically belonged to type C, but the antiserum showed no cross-agglutination with any of type C strains isolated in Denmark. All of the latter strains, however, were agglutinated by an antiserum prepared against a Danish strain, CWC11. Of 64 strains, showing heat-labile agglutinability by type D antiserum L9, 22 strains were toxigenically identified as type D strains which can be divided into three groups by the heat-stable antigens; no strains which were L-agglutination-positive but O-agglutination-negative were epislon-toxigenic. All of 13 strains, the heat-stable antigen of which was agglutinable by a type D antiserum VX81, were toxigenically type D strains. The results of fluorescent-antibody tests were almost in agreement with those of agglutination test with type C strains and completely with those of the O-agglutination test with type D strains. No beta-, epsilon- or delta-toxigenicity could be demonstrated in strains which were not agglutinated by our test sera for types C and D strains. Further examination of cultural properties of Japanese and Danish type C strains revealed that the two groups were considerably different in urease production, capsule formation, and delta- and alpha-toxigenicities.     

A Comparative Study of Staphylococcus aureus Strains Isolated from Bovine Subclinical Mastitis During 1952–1956 and 1992

Fiftytwo strains of S. aureus isolated from cases of bovine subclinical mastitis in 52 different dairy herds in Denmark, in the periods 1952 to 1956 and 1992, were compared with regard to their phage- and EcoRI ribo-types. Furthermore, susceptibility to penicillin and production of fibrinolysin were used as additional phenotypic markers. Fortynine strains (94%) could be separated into 12 phage types. Ribotyping assigned the 52 strains to 21 different types. Both methods showed that 57% of the 1950’s strains and between 38–45% of the 1992 strains belonged to 3 dominating types. The remaining strains were placed by ribotyping in 8 types occurring among the 1952–1956 strains and 10 types occurring among the 1992 strains. In 87% of the strains the results of the 2 typing methods were in accordance. However, 7 strains gave different results by the 2 methods including 2 strains with major differences. Penicillin resistance only occurred in a single genotype from the 1950’s compared to 6 different genotypes among the 1992 strains.     

微生物肥料中大肠菌群的测定及鉴别

为了正确区分微生物肥料产品中的大肠菌群,对近期检测的样品在伊红美兰(EMB)平板上得到的52株细菌进行了验证,并根据菌落的颜色和形态挑选出18个菌株,用Biolog微生物自动鉴定系统进行鉴定,以大肠杆菌科的4属7株标准菌株进行对照,鉴定结果和标准菌株一致。同时对微生物肥料中常用的13株革兰氏阳性(或可变)菌株和8株革兰氏阴性菌株也作了大肠菌群检测试验。其中,革兰氏阳性(或可变)菌株在乳糖胆盐发酵管和EMB平板上结果均为阴性,革兰氏阴性菌8株中有3株能利用乳糖,但都不产气,可以通过验证试验加以区分。明确了微生物肥料产品中常用菌种利用乳糖的情况以及在EMB平板上经常出现的不同菌落的分类地位,对大肠菌群的判定具有指导意义。     

Characterisation of persistent and sporadic Listeria monocytogenes strains by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP)

This study was set up to evaluate the genetic similarity or dissimilarity of persistent and sporadic Listeria monocytogenes strains existing in eleven food processing facilities, including fish, dairy, meat and poultry processing plants. In each plant persistent and sporadic strains were selected on the basis of PFGE typing results. A total of 17 strains representing persistent strains and 38 sporadic strains originating from eleven food processing plants were included in the study. PFGE macrorestriction patterns of persistent and sporadic strains from different processing plants were compared and the strains were further studied by amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP), being a characterisation method giving more whole genome based information. The 17 persistent and 38 sporadic strains showed 14 and 35 pulsotypes, 14 and 28 AFLP types, respectively. The combination of PFGE and AFLP typing results yielded a total of 48 genotypes. Thirteen of 15 genotypes presented by persistent strains were only associated with persistent strains and similarly 94% (33/35) of genotypes showed by sporadic strains were recovered among sporadic strains only. Our results showed that L. monocytogenes strains causing persistent contamination differ from sporadic strains. In AFLP analysis persistent strains did not, however, form any specific clusters and neither was there any difference between the known two genomic groups. These results indicate that even though persistent strains differ from sporadic strains there seems not to be any specific evolutional lineage of persistent strains.

Characterization and determination of origin of lactic acid bacteria from a sorghum-based fermented weaning food by analysis of soluble proteins and amplified fragment length polymorphism fingerprinting

The group that includes the lactic acid bacteria is one of the most diverse groups of bacteria known, and these organisms have been characterized extensively by using different techniques. In this study, 180 lactic acid bacterial strains isolated from sorghum powder (44 strains) and from corresponding fermented (93 strains) and cooked fermented (43 strains) porridge samples that were prepared in 15 households were characterized by using biochemical and physiological methods, as well as by analyzing the electrophoretic profiles of total soluble proteins. A total of 58 of the 180 strains were Lactobacillus plantarum strains, 47 were Leuconostoc mesenteroides strains, 25 were Lactobacillus sake-Lactobacillus curvatus strains, 17 were Pediococcus pentosaceus strains, 13 were Pediococcus acidilactici strains, and 7 were Lactococcus lactis strains. L. plantarum and L. mesenteroides strains were the dominant strains during the fermentation process and were recovered from 87 and 73% of the households, respectively. The potential origins of these groups of lactic acid bacteria were assessed by amplified fragment length polymorphism fingerprint analysis.     

GENETIC ANALYSIS OF DEVELOPMENTAL MECHANISMS IN HYDRA I. SEXUAL REPRODUCTION OF HYDRA MAGNIPAPILLATA AND ISOLATION OF MUTANTS

Hydra magnipapillata strains collected from various localities in Japan were induced to reproduce sexually.
From the survival data of the progeny, it was calculated that H. magnipapillata contained an average of between 3.5 and 4.0 lethal equivalent units of recessive deleterious genes per gamate (between 7.0 and 8.0 per animal).
Various types of developmental mutants were found among the offspring of crosses made between strains isolated from the same ponds. The mutant types isolated included mini strains, maxi strains, multi-headed strains, nematocyst-deficient strains, regeneration-deficient strains and male sterile strains. The characters of these strains were stably transmissible to the successive progeny produced by budding. These strains therefore were propagated by budding and maintained as clonal lines to be used later for developmental studies.     

Rhizobium meliloti competitiveness and the alfalfa agglutinin

We have isolated two types of isolates having identical colony morphologies from stock cultures of two different Rhizobium meliloti strains. One isolate was agglutinated at a high-dilution titer (HA, highly agglutinable) of the alfalfa agglutinin and was sensitive to phage F20, and the other was agglutinated at a lower agglutinin titer (LA) and was sensitive to phage 16B. All LA isolates from the original slant produced nodules on alfalfa earlier than did HA strains from the original slant. When these HA and LA strains were mixed and used as the inoculum in both vermiculite and field soil in the laboratory, LA strains were always the predominant strains recovered from the nodules. LA strains were obtained from HA cells by selection for resistance to phage F20, and HA strains were obtained from LA cells by selection for resistance to phage 16B. All of the strains with the HA phenotype that were derived from LA strains by phage selection had the nodulation properties of the HA strains from the original slant. Two classes of strains with the LA phenotype were obtained from HA cells by phage selection. One was identical to the original LA strains from the slant, and the other had the nodulation properties of the HA strains. Thus, we have shown that some cell surface properties change the nodulation abilities of R. meliloti strains and, furthermore, that specific phages can be used to enrich for more competitive rhizobia.

Sensitivites in vitro to antimicrobial drugs of bovine mycoplasmas isolated from respiratory and genital tracts

A total of 155 Mycoplasma strains were examined for sensitivity to nine antibiotics and four nitrofurans by the agar dilution method. They consisted of 69 strains of Mycoplasma bovirhinis, 33 strains of M. bovigenitalium, 49 strains of Acholeplasma laidlawii and four strains of A. modicum isolated from the nasal secretions, tracheas and lungs of calves manifesting respiratory symptoms and from bovine genital tracts collected at a slaughterhouse. As a result, furamizole and mitomycin C showed the strongest growth-inhibiting effect on all the strains. They were followed in this effect by kitasamycin tartrate, spiramycin adipate, tylosin tartrate, tetracycline-HCl and chloramphenicol. Furthermore, these five drugs were followed in the effect by furazolidone, nitrofurantoin and sodium nifurstyrenate. Fradiomycin sulfate and kanamycin sulfate showed only little effect on all the strains. Erythromycin lactobionate showed a strong growth-inhibiting effect on the Acholeplasma strains, but not on the Mycoplasma strains. There were some cross resistant strains of the Acholeplasma species to the effects of the macrolides.

Improvement in citric acid production by haploidization of Aspergillus niger diploid strains

Segregation of diploid strains by a haploidizing agent was used to improve citric acid producing strains of Aspergillus niger. Stable diploid strains were obtained via protoplast fusion between two citric acid-producing strains from different genealogies, one for shaking culture and the other for solid culture. Diploid strains were treated by benomyl as a haploidizing agent, and many segregants were obtained. Prototrophic segregants were selected and their haploidy was confirmed by their conidial size and DNA contents. The prototrophic segregants were very variable in their citric acid productivities, some of them better either in shaking culture or in solid culture than both the parental strains. The presence of methanol stimulated citric acid production by the parental and the diploid strains. However, all prototrophic segregants derived from one diploid strain had higher productivities in solid cultures without methanol than in those with methanol.
