Abstract
A bacterium isolated from the feces of a patient with granuloma inguinale was morphologically similar to Donovania (Calym-matobacterium) granulomatis and had cultural characteristics identical with D. granulomatis. It reacted with sera from patients with granuloma inguinale to the same degree as antigens prepared from known strains of D. granulomatis.Keywords
