Published: March 1992

Campylobacter sputorum biovar sputorum is a rarely isolated organism, particularly from human clinical specimens. Its pathogenic potential is unknown. We present here what we believe to be the first report of this organism being isolated from a clinically significant source, an axillary abscess. To our knowledge, this organism has not been reported previously as one of clinical relevance in the U.K.

Six urease-negative strains were isolated from cattle faeces over a 19-month period from 2009 to 2010. These strains were initially identified as by 16S rRNA gene and typing. Initial studies characterizing these strains by multilocus sequence typing and genome sequencing further supported their classification as but indicated that these strains form a divergent clade within the species.

Campylobacter jejuni is the leading bacterial food-borne pathogen in Europe. Despite the accepted limits of cultural detection of the fastidious bacterium, the "gold standard" in food microbiology is still the determination of colony-forming units (CFU). As an alternative, a live/dead differentiating qPCR has been established, using propidium monoazide (PMA) as DNA-intercalating crosslink agent for inactivating DNA from dead, membrane-compromised cells.
