Faecal samples of 200 infants were investigated for haemolytic Enterobacteriaceae. Forty infants were carrying alpha-haemolysin producing Escherichia coli, two carried haemolytic strains of Morganella morganii and one infant carried a haemolytic strain of Enterobacter cloacae. The M. morganii and E. cloacae strains were found to produce alpha-haemolysin which was tested with a specific monoclonal antibody and by DNA-hybridization with an alpha-haemolysin specific gene probe. To our knowledge this is the first report of alpha-haemolysin production found in a strain of E. cloacae.
对200名婴儿的粪便样本进行了溶血性肠杆菌科细菌的调查。40名婴儿携带产α-溶血素的大肠杆菌，2名婴儿携带摩根氏摩根菌的溶血菌株，1名婴儿携带阴沟肠杆菌的溶血菌株。发现摩根氏摩根菌和阴沟肠杆菌菌株产生α-溶血素，用特异性单克隆抗体进行检测，并通过与α-溶血素特异性基因探针进行DNA杂交检测。据我们所知，这是在阴沟肠杆菌菌株中发现产α-溶血素的首次报道。
