A total of 152 clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii from 152 patients were identified by carbon source utilization tests and examined serologically. Polyclonal rabbit immune sera against A. baumannii strains were used in checkerboard tube agglutination tests, and 20 serovars were identified. One (serovar 19) cross-reacted with genospecies 3 (serovar 3), a closely related member of the genus Acinetobacter. Several outbreaks of nosocomial cross-infection caused by serovars 4 and 10 were delineated.
通过碳源利用试验从152名患者中鉴定出总共152株鲍曼不动杆菌临床分离株,并进行了血清学检测。使用针对鲍曼不动杆菌菌株的兔多克隆免疫血清进行棋盘式试管凝集试验,鉴定出20个血清型。其中一个血清型(血清型19)与不动杆菌属的密切相关成员基因种3(血清型3)发生交叉反应。确定了由血清型4和10引起的几起医院内交叉感染暴发。
