title: Sensitivity of Shigella strains to the bactericidal activity of human serum. III. The diversity of activity variants of bactericidal serum factors against Shigella flexneri serotypes.
abstract: Normal human serum is bactericidal for all studied Shigella flexneri strains (38) belonging to nine serotypes. Six variants of bactericidal activity of serum factors for these bacteria were determined.
