Abstract:
O and H serotyping of Pseudomonas cepacia has provided a suitable procedure for epidemiological studies. Our previous reports have described 7 O and 5 H antigens. The study of strains from another geographical origin led us to prepare antisera against those which could not be serotyped and thus to determine 2 new O and 2 new H specificities (O:8 and O:9, H:4 and H:8).
