title: Identification of Aeromonas strains of clinical origin with atypical phenotypical profiles.
abstract: A total of 47 strains of Aereomonas isolated from patients with gastroenteritis was analyzed for 40 phenotypical characters and for evaluating the numeric taxonomy based on 27 discriminatory tests. It was proved that the clinical isolates showed a relative phenotypical distance and the groups of strains that had atypical profiles were compared with the type species by the present identification schemes.
