[The comparative identification of Campylobacter strains by traditional enzymatic tests and the gene amplification reaction].

Abstract excerpt

39 strains of Campylobacter isolated from 153 diarrhoeal children (0-3 years) were comparatively identified by the traditional enzymatic tests and by the Polymerase Chain reaction (PCR). The hippurate hydrolysis test appreciated 27 strains as Campylobacter jejuni (69.2%) and 12 strains as Campylobacter coli (30.8%). The P.C.R. realised in France has appreciated 29 strains as Campylobacter jejuni (74.4%) and 10...
