Abstract excerpt
As part of a collaborative study, six culture collection isolates and 50 coded isolates of Fusobacterium necrophorum were examined for the types of lipopolysaccharides (LPS) they contained, and to see if this related to their reactions in a range of phenotypic tests and their susceptibility to a panel of six antimicrobial compounds. The biotype B type strain, putative biotype B isolates and human isolates were...
