Suggested Grouping of Slow Lactose Fermenting Coliform Organisms

The Biochemical and Serological Relationships of the Organisms of the GenusProteus

“…Aberrant coliforms, slow or nonfermenting lactose strains, with the colonial and biochemical characteristics of P. photuris, have been studied in this laboratory. These cultures were isolated from water, soil, and cereal and were classed as aberrant Aerobacter (Stuart, Mickle, and Borman, 1940).…”

Eijkman Relationships of the Coliform and Related Bacteria

“…Inprevious investigationson the coliform bacteria (Stuart, Griffn et al 1938, Stuart, Wheeler etal. 1938, Griffinet al 1940, Stuart, Baker et al 1940, and Stuart, Mickle et al 1940) 3 groups of 6 types each and one additional type were established. While the 19 types were of great value in a detailed study of the coliform and related 569.…”

Erwinia-Like Microorganisms Isolated from Animal and Human Hosts

“…They are said to invade living plants and to produce dry necrosis, galls, wilts, and soft rot. Reports of the Erwinia include definition of characteristics (Winslow et al, 1917;Billing and Baker, 1963) and studies for differentiation from the coliform bacteria which they so closely resemble (Stanley, 1938;Stuart, Griffin, and Baker, 1938;Stuart, Mickle, and Borman, 1940;Dowson, 1941;Elrod, 1941Elrod, , 1942.…”
