The origin of sporadic campylobacter infections has been investigated by means of a collaborative study. From a total of 1152 cases reported in North West England in 1982, Campylobacter strains isolated during one month in each quarter of the year were biotyped and serotyped. For comparison, 875 strains of Campylobacter isolated from environmental and animal sources were similarly examined. Most strains from human beings were Campylobacter jejuni; about half of them were of three serotypes. Those serotypes commonly found in human infections were frequent among strains isolated from environmental and animal sources.
通过一项合作研究对散发性弯曲杆菌感染的起源进行了调查。在1982年英格兰西北部报告的总共1152例病例中，对一年中每个季度一个月内分离出的弯曲杆菌菌株进行了生物分型和血清分型。作为比较，对从环境和动物来源分离出的875株弯曲杆菌菌株进行了类似检查。大多数来自人类的菌株是空肠弯曲杆菌；其中约一半属于三种血清型。在人类感染中常见的那些血清型在从环境和动物来源分离出的菌株中也很常见。
