  • Structure and antigenic properties of Citrobacter Freundii lipopolysaccharides
    Journal of Applied Microbiology, 1993
    Co-Authors: Henrik Chart, Geraldine A. Willshaw, T Cheasty, Rowe B
    Abstract:

    Citrobacter Freundii strain E69366 was detected in a colony immunoassay with a rabbit antiserum prepared to a strain of Escherichia coli belonging to serogroup 0157. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was shown to contain the epitope(s) involved in antibody binding. LPS prepared from strain E69366, with hot phenol contained core-LPS that migrated to the water-phase and long-chain LPS that separated into the phenol-phase. A total of 36 strains of Cit. Freundii were analysed for their LPS profiles by SDS-PAGE. Sixteen could be allocated into five groups (A(3), B(7), C(2), D(2) and E(2)) based on similarities in LPS profile. The remaining strains either expressed unique SDS-PAGE profiles (18) or did not express long-chain LPS (2).
