Abstract
Fourteen strains of E. rhusiopathiae, representing extremes of host-range and world distribution, were examined for protein composition as determined by electrophoresis and electrofocus patterns, guanine-cytosine mole ratios of their respective DNAs and carbohydrate fermentation patterns. No correlation is apparent between any particular physical-chemical property and virulence in mice. The role the bacterial fragments play in the pathogenesis of a rabbit model of rheumatoid arthritis is discussed.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
