Characteristics of yellow-pigmented nonfermentative bacilli (groups VE-1 and VE-2) encountered in clinical bacteriology

Abstract

The morphological and physiological characteristics of 20 strains of motile, gram-negative, yellow-pigmented oxidative bacilli (groups VE-1 and VE-2) isolated in clinical bacteriology are described. Electron micrographs demonstrate the polar multitrichous flagella of group VE-1 and polar monotrichous flagella of group VE-2. Data obtained from guanine plus cytosine ratio studies of 56.8% for VE-1 and 68.9% for VE-2 distinguish the two groups of bacteria.
