Using the cross agglutinin absorption test 12 British leptospiral isolates of the Sejroe serogroup were identified to serovar level. Six strains isolated from cattle, two from pigs and one from a human were identified as Leptospira interrogans serovar hardjo. Two isolates from wildlife were identified as Leptospira interrogans serovar saxkoebing. One further strain isolated from wildlife closely resembled serovar saxkoebing, but specific identification was not possible. These are the first reported isolations of serovar saxkoebing in the United Kingdom. The problems associated with the cross agglutinin absorption test, and possible alternative typing procedures are discussed.
通过交叉凝集素吸收试验,对12株来自Sejroe血清群的英国钩端螺旋体分离株进行了血清型鉴定。从牛身上分离出的6株、猪身上分离出的2株以及从一名人类身上分离出的1株被鉴定为问号钩端螺旋体哈焦血清型。从野生动物身上分离出的2株被鉴定为问号钩端螺旋体萨克森比血清型。从野生动物身上分离出的另一株菌株与萨克森比血清型非常相似,但无法进行特异性鉴定。这些是英国首次报道的萨克森比血清型分离株。文中讨论了交叉凝集素吸收试验相关的问题以及可能的替代分型方法。
