AI Article Synopsis
- The study compared Clostridium difficile strains from Delmée and Poland using slide agglutination and protein analysis methods.
- Among the Delmée strains (groups A, D, and K), flagella were present, while the Polish strains showed no flagella.
- SDS-PAGE analysis revealed that Polish strains displayed distinct protein patterns, classifying them into three groups based on their protein profiles.
Article Abstract
In this study we compared Delmée and Polish serogroup-specific Clostridium difficile strains by slide agglutination, observation of flagella and SDS-PAGE protein patterns. Among Delmée serogroup specific strains we observed flagella in groups A, D and K. Among Polish serogroup-specific Clostridium difficile strains we did not observe flagella. The Polish serogroup-specific strains gave different protein patterns compared to Delmée strains. SDS-PAGE protein pattern analyses of Polish serogroup-specific strains divide these strains into 3 groups: 71, 88 and third embracing 18, 27, 70, 72, and 89.

Methods: The main objective of this article is to assess the epidemiology of legionellosis in Poland in 2010, using national surveillance data. In Poland, legionellosis is a mandatory notifiable disease based on the European Union (probable or confirmed) case definition, however Legionella pnemophila of unknown serogroup specific antybody response meets also laboratory criteria for case confirmation.
Results: The number of legionellosis cases reported has increased over the past years.
