Abstract excerpt
Sixteen strains of atypical (catalase-weak or negative), hippurate-hydrolysing campylobacters from paediatric blood and faecal cultures were identified by DNA-DNA slot hybridization. All were closely related (greater than or equal to 67%) to Campylobacter jejuni and representative strains had G +...
