Salmonella crossness--a new serotype containing a new comatic (O) antigen, 67.
A new salmonella subgenus I serotype is described. Strein C.S. 1608/73, serotype 67:R:1, 2, was isolated from activated sewage sludge and was assigned the name S. crossness. The serotype is biochemically atypical in its ability to utilize sucrose and this ability appears to be controlled by a transferable plasmid.
