microbiological characteristics of weeksella virosa (formerly cdc group iif) isolated from the human genitourinary tract.weeksella virosa (formerly cdc group iif) is a nonsaccharolytic, oxidase- and catalase-positive, gram-negative rod which is unable to grow on macconkey agar. at 48 h of incubation on blood or chocolate agar, the colonies present a characteristic appearance: intensely mucoid, adherent, and cream colored as a result of the production of a nondiffusible yellow pigment. this microorganism has been isolated predominantly from the female genitourinary tract, which indicates the opportunity for sexual ...19902229364
biologic activity of soluble collagen-anticollagen immune complexes as demonstrated by passive cutaneous anaphylaxis.collagen-anticollagen immune complexes were prepared by gel filtration. complex formation was chemically and serologically demonstrated. complexes eluting in gammam- and gammag-peaks of antigen-antiserum mixture showed strong positive reactions in pca experiments performed with 20 guinea pigs. control preparations of gammam- and gammag-peaks of antiserum devoid of antigen gave significantly lower pca-response. the positive reaction of control preparations can be explained in part by a certain de ...1975127469
response of weeksella virosa peritonitis to imipenem/cilastin.capd peritonitis is most commonly due to gram positive infection. gram negative bacillary infection is less frequent but is often seen in hospitalized patients or in those on antibiotics. weeksella virosa (formerly known as flavobacterium ii f) has been isolated from the vaginal secretions and urine of normal women. as gram negative colonization typically proceeds from the perineal region, weeksella virosa peritonitis might be expected in women at risk for gram negative peritonitis. a 33-year-ol ...19911680409
