The Characterization of Several Intestinal Spirochetes of Animal Origin
type: CreativeWork
description: The objectives of this study were: (1) to isolate an intestinal spirochete from a nonhuman primate and to characterize it along with several other intestinal spirochetes from a pig, dog, mouse, opossum, and gibbon on the basis of structural and selected biochemical characters, (2) to evaluate these properties using numerical taxonomy in order to provide more information for the classification of such agents, and (3) to further characterize the swine dysentery spirochete (SD).
