  • Title: Unusual Enterobacteriaceae: H2S+ Shigella sonnei, one authentic and one false positive due to contamination with the obligate anaerobe Eubacterium lentum.
    Author: Farmer JJ, Riddle CF, Stargel MD, Iida H, Aikawa T, Achanzar D, Taylor WI.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 1976 Feb; 3(2):206-8. PubMed ID: 767362.
    Abstract:
    A mixture of Shigella sonnei and Eubacterium lentum produced H2S in triple sugar iron agar; however, neither produced any in pure culture. A second culture of S. sonnei, isolated in Japan, is thought to be the first documented H2S+ Shigella.
