structural analysis of the lipid a isolated from hafnia alvei 32 and pcm 1192 lipopolysaccharides.	hafnia alvei, a gram-negative bacterium, is an opportunistic pathogen associated with mixed hospital infections, bacteremia, septicemia, and respiratory diseases. the majority of clinical symptoms of diseases caused by this bacterium have a lipopolysaccharide (lps, endotoxin)-related origin. the lipid a structure affects the biological activity of endotoxins predominantly. thus, the structure of h. alvei lipid a was analyzed for the first time. the major form, asymmetrically hexa-acylated lipid ...	2010	19706748
hafnia paralvei sp. nov., formerly known as hafnia alvei hybridization group 2.	it has been shown previously, based largely on dna-dna hybridizations and partial 16s rrna gene sequencing, that hafnia alvei is genotypically heterogeneous and consists of at least two dna hybridization groups (hgs). in the present study, the taxonomic status of h. alvei hgs 1 and 2 was reassessed. a panel of 24 reference strains and isolates previously assigned to one of the two hgs in h. alvei was subjected to (gtg)5-pcr fingerprinting; this resulted in the delineation of two (gtg)5-pcr clust ...	2010	19734282
