New O and H antigens of the international antigenic scheme for Plesiomonas shigelloides
Abstract
A revised update of the International antigenic scheme for Plesiomonas shigelloides is presented. Twenty-six new O (O77-O102) and 10 new H (H42-H50 and H1a1d) antigens have been described since 1994. The sources of antigens are mostly human clinical strains, isolates from warmblooded animals and a few environmental cultures.
