[Characterisation of Corynebacterium vaginale by the fluorescent antibody technic (author's transl)]
Abstract:
When using the serum of rabbits immunized against the reference vaginal strain 594 of Gardner and Dukes, the authors tried to find an antigenic identity between this strain and the usual strains that can ordinarily be detected in vaginal samples. The immunizing process that has been used is indirect immunofluorescence. Through these studies, it is possible to conclude that, besides usual strains identical to the reference strain, some specific strains can be detected that have the same microscopic and cultural characteristics as Corynebacterium vaginale but that are deprived of its antigenic characteristics.
