Abstract excerpt
Hydrophobic property of 136 Escherichia coli strains was examined by salt aggregation test (SAT). Out of the tested strains 61 were SAT positive. The correlations among the surface properties characterized by SAT and other phenotypical properties, e.g. mannose resistant haemagglutinating activity (MRHA), mannose sensitive haemagglutinating activity (MSHA), presence of antigen K1 and adsorption to Al(OH)3 gel were...
