[Isolation of Kluyvera ascorbata from Madagascan lemurs, healthy carriers of this unusual enterobacterium].
Six strains of Kluyvera ascorbata--an unusual species in the family Enterobacteriaceae--were isolated from six healthy lemurs, located in Tananarive's zoological garden. Their bacteriological characters are reported and compared with those of Levinea and Escherichia coli. Their occurrence and significance in animals are discussed.
