higella Flexneri Serotypes: O-antigen Structure, Serotype Conversion, and Serotyping Methods
Shigella flexneri is the most common cause of shigellosis in developing countries. Up to now, 23 serotypes of S. flexneri have been reported. Different serotypes result from the addition of acetyl, glucosyl, or phosphatidylethanolamine groups on the O-antigen backbone and horizontal transfer of mentioned groups can lead to serotype conversion among S ...

HUMAN ASTROVIRUS SEROTYPES [PDF]
SummaryTwo serotypes of human astroviruses are described. It is proposed that these should be called serotype 1 and serotype 2. Using antisera to these two types, 13 of 15 other community-acquired strains were able to be typed, 12 as serotype 1 and one as serotype 2.

Two New Salmonella Serotypes (Serotype malakal and Serotype khartoum) Isolated from Dogs [PDF]
Two new Salmonella serotypes, Salmonella sp. serotype malakal and Salmonella sp. serotype khartoum, have been isolated from mesenteric lymph nodes of apparently healthy dogs in the Sudan, and they belong to Salmonella subgenus I. The antigenic formulae of these serotypes are: S. malakal = 16: e,h: 1,2; S. khartoum = (3),(15), 34: a : 1,7.
