Experiences with serology of Plesiomonas shigelloides. 2. H-antigenic structure.
A total of 140 out of 144 motile Plesiomonas shigelloides strains were typable with the aid of a set of 15 H-antisera designated by letter symbols a through o. Commonly, strains of different O-serovars turned out to share the identical H-antigen and for some O-serovars it was typical to possess the certain type of H-antigen, as e.g. strains of serovar 017 which all have been to date characterized by the presence of H-antigens c, d or f. This set of 15 H-sera together with the previously described O-antigenic scheme of Plesiomonas may help to determine the frequency rates of OH serovars.
