  • Title: Extracellular enzymes of fecal strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
    Author: Marne C, Vindel A.
    Journal: Eur J Clin Microbiol Infect Dis; 1988 Apr; 7(2):307-9. PubMed ID: 2839341.
    Abstract:
    During a three year study 67 strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were isolated from stools of 67 patients with gastroenteritis. Serotypes 3 and 6 were the most frequent. The three strains that were serotype 11 were also the only beta-galactosidase producers. All strains were strongly pigmented. Over 90% of the isolates produced hemolysin, gelatinase, protease (caseinase), fibrinolysin, lecithinase and elastase. Fecal carriers of Pseudomonas aeruginosa can be considered a source of dissemination of potentially virulent and invasive strains.
