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.

Characterization of Serotype CD Mosaic Botulinum Neurotoxin in Comparison with Serotype C and A
Botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT), produced by Clostridium botulinum, cleaves proteins involved in neurotransmitter release, thereby triggering flaccid paralyses, which are responsible for botulism. BoNT is classified into seven serotypes (BoNT/A-G); BoNT/A and BoNT/B are used as medical therapeutics and anti-wrinkle reagents.
