A simple, reproducible technique is described for bacteriocin typing of clinical isolates of Serratia marcescens. With 10 marcescin-producer strains, a total of 46 of 50 isolates (92%) of S. marcescens could be typed and categorized into 16 provisional types according to their sensitivity or tolerance to marcescins. The potential significance of this procedure with regard to delineation of outbreaks of nosocomial infection is discussed on the basis of preliminary epidemiological data.
本文描述了一种简单、可重复的技术,用于对粘质沙雷氏菌临床分离株进行细菌素分型。使用10株产粘质菌素的菌株,50株粘质沙雷氏菌分离株中有46株(92%)可被分型,并根据它们对粘质菌素的敏感性或耐受性分为16个暂定类型。根据初步的流行病学数据,讨论了该方法在界定医院感染暴发方面的潜在意义。
