Title: Two Actinobacillus species isolated from laboratory rodents. Author: Simpson W, Simmons DJ. Journal: Lab Anim; 1980 Jan; 14(1):15-6. PubMed ID: 7188999. Abstract: A study was made of the cultural and biochemical characteristics of 17 strains of Actinobacillus isolated from laboratory rats and hamsters. 2 types were recognized which differed in their urease reaction and colony colour on blood agar. The results obtained suggest that one was Actinobacillus equuli but the other could not be identified as belonging to a described species. The characteristics of both organisms are such that they could be confused with Pasteurella pneumotropica. One of the types was isolated from tapwater.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
