Changes in the nuclear structure of bacteria, particularly during spore formationCambridge University Press (CUP) - Tập 44 Số 2 - Trang 99-108 - 1945
E. Klieneberger‐Nobel
Changes of nuclear structure in bacteria have been studied by means of the hydrochloric acid-Giemsa method which produces brilliantly stained specimens and can be carried out with almost the same ease as some of the ordinary routine staining techniques.The nuclear changes in the four spore-bearing organisms studied are outlined in Text-fig. III, to which the following numb...... hiện toàn bộ
Lactose-Fermenting Bacteria in FaecesCambridge University Press (CUP) - Tập 5 Số 3 - Trang 333-379 - 1905
Alfred MacConkey
The following experiments were begun with the object of ascertaining the distribution in nature of certain lactose-fermenting organisms which are by some grouped under the name Bacillus coli, but by others are regarded as belonging to a different class of organisms; a difference of opinion which is most probably the principal factor in causing the value of ... hiện toàn bộ

Betty C. Hobbs, Muriel E. Smith, C. L. Oakley, G. Harriet Warrack, J. C. Cruickshank
1. Outbreaks of mild food poisoning have been investigated in which heat-resistantCl. welchiiappeared to be the causative organism. The outbreaks were characterized by colic and diarrhoea without vomiting, commencing 8–20 hr. after ingestion of the contaminated food.2. The strains ofCl. welchiiconcerned are only feebly ...... hiện toàn bộ
Nosocomial klebsiellas: I. Colonization of hospitalized patientsCambridge University Press (CUP) - Tập 82 Số 2 - Trang 177-193 - 1979
Michael L. Haverkorn, M. F. Michel
SUMMARYThe colonization of patients byKlebsiellaand several other gram-negative bacteria was studied in a hospital urological ward over a period of six months. Before and during the survey there was no evidence of an outbreak of nosocomial infection and multi-drug resistant strains ofKlebsiellawere not isolated....... hiện toàn bộ
Klebsiellaspecies in hospital food and kitchens: a source of organisms in the bowel of patientsCambridge University Press (CUP) - Tập 84 Số 1 - Trang 97-101 - 1980
E. M. Cooke, Tahere Sazegar, A. S. Edmondson, Janet C. Brayson, Diana Hall
SUMMARYHospital food was examined for the presence ofKlebsiellaspecies. Salads and cold meat were most frequently contaminated, often containing more than 103organisms per g.Klebsiellaspecies were also widely distributed in the kitchen environment which was considered, at least in part, to b...... hiện toàn bộ
Age-related changes in the rate of disease transmission: implications for the design of vaccination programmesCambridge University Press (CUP) - Tập 94 Số 3 - Trang 365-436 - 1985
Roy M. Anderson, Robert M. May
SUMMARYMathematical models are developed to aid in the investigation of the implications of heterogeneity in contact with infection within a community, on the design of mass vaccination programmes for the control of childhood viral and bacterial infections in developed countries. Analyses are focused on age-dependency in the rate at which individuals acquire infect...... hiện toàn bộ

S. A. Henry, E. D. Irvine
The following report describes the result of an effort to trace and investigate all the cases of cancer of the skin of the scrotum which have occurred in the inhabitants of the Blackburn Registration District during the period 1837–1929. Our enquiries have been directed in particular to the ascertainment of the various occupations followed by the patients affected, with a view to the consi...... hiện toàn bộ
The epidemiological type identification ofSerratia marcescensfrom outbreaks of infection in hospitalsCambridge University Press (CUP) - Tập 84 Số 2 - Trang 269-283 - 1980
Tyrone L. Pitt, Y J Erdman, C. Bucher
SUMMARYA study of serological, bacteriocine and phage typing ofSerratia marcescenswas made. Specific O-antisera of adequate titre were relatively simple to prepare but H-antisera exhibited many heterologous agglutination reactions amongst the type strains. Most of these cross-reactions were not reproduced when immobilization tests with H-...... hiện toàn bộ
