Phage typing of Mycobacterium kansasii.

Tubercle, 1980
An improved phage typing scheme of M. kansasii is presented. Ultrasonic treatment of the bacterial suspensions was successfully used in order to obtain homogeneous bacterial growth and to improve the reproducibility of the typing. By means of 9 phages 14 lysis patterns (phage types) could be distinguished. The phage typing was applied to 450 strains of

Twenty-three years of Klebsiella phage typing: a review of phage typing of 12 clusters of nosocomial infections, and a comparison of phage typing with K serotyping [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2000
To review phage typing of 12 clusters of nosocomial Klebsiella infections which occurred between 1974 and 1997, and to compare phage typing and K serotyping. Materials and methods A total of 489 clinical and laboratory Klebsiella isolates were phage typed using 110 different phage preparations and K typed by counter current immunoelectrophoresis ...

Vibrio Phages and Phage-Typing

1992
The first vibrio phages were identified by d’Herelle in 1926, and by the 1950s several distinct types of bacteriophage acting on V. cholerae had been described. These studies of cholera bacteriophages have been reviewed by Pollitzer.1 Most early studies were directed towards the use of cholera phages for treatment or prophylaxis rather than strain ...

Paratyphoid-A Phage Typing

Nature, 1955
PHAGE-TYPING of typhoid and paratyphoid-B bacilli is now generally recognized as an indispensable aid in the control of typhoid and paratyphoid-B fever and is carried out in many countries according to internationally agreed standard methods1. On the other hand, the development of a useful typing procedure of Salm. paratyphi A has been long delayed.

Phage typing of Staphylococcus intermedius

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1991
Staphylococcus intermedius, a coagulase-positive staphylococcal species, is a common canine pathogen and a rare human wound pathogen. A total of 145 strains of S. intermedius (ATCC 29663, 4 reference strains, 4 human isolates, 44 canine infection isolates, and 92 isolates from canine gingiva) were screened for lysogenic phage by a modified Fisk method.
