An investigation into the properties of klebsiella strains isolated from ankylosing spondylitis patients.
Thirty-nine strains of klebsiella isolated from ankylosing spondylitis patients were examined by the methods of Cowan & Steel (1974), those described by Edmondson et al. (1980) and by capsular typing. No significant difference was detected by any of these methods between these strains and those examined by other workers from non-ankylosing spondylitis patients and other environments.
