The prevailing O serogroups among the serologically differentiated clinical Proteus spp. strains in central Poland
Abstract In the years 2006–2011, 617 Proteus spp. strains isolated mostly from urine and wounds or other clinical sources were collected in Łódź, Poland, to determine the offensive O serotypes frequently occurring among patients. P. mirabilis exhibited the most intensive swarming growth and was domi...
