Morphological and physiological characterization of 12 Aeromonas strains isolated from clinical specimens demonstrated several important diagnostic features. These included polar arrangement of the flagella; production of oxidase, deoxyribonuclease, amylase, gelatinase, and lipase; lack of ornithine decarboxylase; and sensitivity to polymyxin. Awareness of these features should result in more frequent differentiation of aeromonads from the physiologically similar members of the genus Plesiomonas and the late- or non-lactose-fermenting species of Enterobacteriaceae.
从临床标本中分离出的12株气单胞菌的形态学和生理学特征显示出几个重要的诊断特征。这些特征包括鞭毛的极向排列;氧化酶、脱氧核糖核酸酶、淀粉酶、明胶酶和脂肪酶的产生;缺乏鸟氨酸脱羧酶;以及对多粘菌素敏感。了解这些特征应能更频繁地将气单胞菌与生理上相似的邻单胞菌属成员以及肠杆菌科的迟发酵或不发酵乳糖的菌种区分开来。
