a regional quality control program in microbiology. ii. advantages of simulated clinical specimens.	a regional quality control program was established using simulated clinical specimens introduced into the routine workload of participating laboratories in such a way that they were not detected as quality control specimens. comparison of performance between these specimens and lyophilized cultures showed that additional information was obtainable with the former. in particular, it was observed that common pathogens such as escherichia coli are poorly identified in clinical material. the examina ...	1976	782225
[heterogeneity of the population of pseudotuberculosis microbe cultures].	use of the method of oblique illumination of the colonies permitted to detect four variants of pseudotuberculosis microbe differing by the character of fluorescence, and also by virulence, toxicity and immunogenicity. strains isolated from sick persons, carriers and rodents were characterized by polychromatic character of fluorescence of the colonies, whereas strains isolated from the external environment were monochromatic. since colonies with a different fluorescence had different biological p ...	1976	785879

yersinia enterocolitica infection in patients with acute surgical abdominal disease. a prospective study.	the rate of yersiniosis in patients with acute abdominal disease was studied in a 16-month prospective investigation in 1972-1973 of 205 acutely ill patients referred to a surgical clinic of a copenhagen city hospital with complaints of abdominal pain suggestive of appendicitis. yersinia enterocolitica, biotype 4, was isolated from 11 patients (5.4%), 8 of whom were children. yersinia was grown from faeces in 8 cases and from appendix of all 9 patients operated upon. rising or falling agglutinin ...	1976	788144

serological studies on human plague in southern africa. part ii. a bubonic/pneumonic plague epidemic in lesotho.	a description is given of an outbreak of human plague in lesotho in 1968 which was preceded by, and merged with, a typhoid epidemic. this circumstance was responsible for a diagnosis of typhoid fever being made in the earliest plague cases, especially as the clinical presentation was similar to that of the typhoid patients. consequently, the plague epidemic ran its natural course and with the onset of winter the pneumonic form appeared. serological follow-up studies of recovered patients were ca ...	1976	935988

yersinia enterocolitica in borwn trout (salmo trutta l.) from norway.	in this pilot study, 20 brown trout (salmo trutta l.) from one area in western norway were investigated for the presence of yersinia enterocolitica (y.e.). three strains were isolated from three of these trout. all strains were classified as y.e. on the basis of biochemical properties. one of the strains showed antigenic relationship to y.e o-serotype 17. a second strain was antigenically related both to y.e. and y. pseudotuberculosis: agglutination against y.e. o-antisera 4-33, 18, and 21, was ...	1976	1251738
skin lesions in human yersiniosis. a histopathological and immunohistological study.	various types of skin manifestations of human yersiniosis were examined with routine histological and immunohistological methods. the biopsy material consisted of sixteen cases of erythema nodosum, eight cases of erythema multiforme, and one case of erythema figuratum. the principal histopathological changes in erythema nodosum were septal or diffuse, mild panniculitis and in seven cases also necrotizing vasculitis in small, medium-sized or large arteries. perivascular lymphocytic infiltration w ...	1976	1252349

temperature-dependent cultural and biochemical characteristics of rhamnose-positive yersinia enterocolitica.	clinical isolates of rhamnose-positive yersinia enterocolitica (y.e.rh+) were compared with typical rhamnose-negative y. enterocolitica (y.e.rh-) and with yersinia pseudotuberculosis. the y.e.rh+ differed from the y.e.rh- and y. pseudotuberculosis in their ability to ferment raffinose and lactose, utilize citrate and in their inability to grow on hektoen enteric agar at 22 or 37 c, on salmonella-shigella agar at 37 c, and scant on xylose-lysine-deoxycholate agar at 37 c. an extensive temperature ...	1976	1254709

lung abscess and osteomyelitis of rib due to yersinia enterocolitica.	the first reported case of infection of the lung and bone with yersinia enterocolitica is described. this organism has only recently been known to infect humans. although a wide spectrum of diseases has been described, all have appeared to be relatively benign; however, in our case a rapid necrotizing process occurred. therefore, the aggressive nature of this organism outside its usual surroundings, eg, the gastrointestinal tract, is worth noting.	1976	1261324
yersinia pestis infection in vietnam. ii. quantiative blood cultures and detection of endotoxin in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with meningitis.	quantitative blood cultures were obtained from 42 patients with acute yersinia pestis infection to determine whether the concentration of bacteria in blood influenced the clinical severity and outcome of illness. in 17 bacteremic patients, colony counts in blood cultures ranged from less than 10 to 4 x 10(7)/ml. three of five patients with colony counts of greater than 10(2)/ml died, and two patients survived episodes of hypotension. results from plasma limulus tests were positive at the time of ...	1976	1262715
[use of erythrocyte diagnostic agents for the determination of integrative association constants].	the authors described a method of determination of integrative association constant differing from intrinsic association constant by the value of the valency of macromolecular antigen. the method is based on the using of erythrocytes on whose surface one of the components is fixed, whereas the other is in free state. application of equations was demonstratedon a number of examples with determination of integrative association constant. the data obtained permitted to assess qualitative peculiarit ...	1976	1266452
