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 ...

To Serotype or Not To Serotype: That Is Still the Question [PDF]
In this issue of the Journal, the report by Banerjee et al. [1] on the postneonatal protective effect of a prior neonatal infection with G10P [11] rotavirus has important implications for rotavirus vaccinology. The protective efficacy of a neonatal rotavirus infection has been addressed previously by various investigators.

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.

An Unusual Leptospira, Serotype illini (a New Serotype) [PDF]
During the course of a periodic epidemiological survey for leptospirosis of a herd of bulls at the University of Illinois Agricultural Research Center, Dixon Springs, a new leptospiral strain was isolated from the urine of a clinically healthy Hereford bull, no. 3055.

Gel Diffusion Studies on Serotype and Serotype Transformation in Paramecium [PDF]
SUMMARY: Antigens G and E of stock 28 variety 2 of Paramecium aurelia show cross-reactions with their respective antisera in immobilization and gel diffusion tests. In immobilization tests the anti-E serum P, no. 132, shows the strongest cross-reaction; in gel diffusion tests the anti-G serum P, no. 130, cross reacts more strongly.

Serotyping of Clostridium difficile [PDF]
A total of 246 live Clostridium difficile cultures were serotyped by a slide agglutination technique. Fifteen grouping antisera were produced which serotyped 98% of the cultures (241 of 246). Our results indicated that certain serogroups may have specific pathogenicity.

Serotypes of bovine astrovirus [PDF]
Three isolates of bovine astrovirus, one from the United Kingdom and two from the United States, possessed common antigens by immunofluorescence and strain-specific antigens by neutralization and were designated as two, and probably three, distinct serotypes.

SUMMARYThere are situations in which direct observation of the attachment of antibody molecules may be the simplest method of detecting antigen-antibody reactions. Applied to the study of the sex pili determined by a number of transmissible bacterial plasmids, the method has distinguished four serotypes in the F-like class and two in the I-like class ...

Should Pneumococcal Serotype 3 Be Included in Serotype-Specific Immunoassays? [PDF]
Since the introduction of the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, a number of studies have demonstrated the limited efficacy of the pneumococcal serotype 3 component of this vaccine. Evidence from seven countries (Denmark, France, Greece, Portugal, Sweden, UK, US) shows limited or no effectiveness of the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine ...

Serotyping of Vibrio anguillarum [PDF]
A serotyping scheme based on the detection of O antigens by slide agglutination in fish-pathogenic strains of Vibrio anguillarum is presented. Over a period of 5 years 270 Vibrio strains from feral and cultured fish, 189 strains from the environment, and 36 strains from invertebrates were collected.
