25. Use of multiple molecular subtyping techniques to investigate a Legionnaires' disease outbreak due to identical strains at two tourist lodges.
A multistate outbreak of Legionnaires' disease occurred among nine tour groups of senior citizens returning from stays at one of two lodges in a Vermont resort in October 1987. Interviews and serologic studies of 383 (85%) of the tour members revealed 17 individuals (attack rate, 4.4%) with radiologically documented pneumonia and laboratory evidence of legio

26. SEROLOGICAL GROUPING OF THE PATHOGENIC CLOSTRIDIA
Ellner, Paul D. (University of Vermont, Burlington), and Stanley S. Green. Serological grouping of the pathogenic clostridia. J. Bacteriol. 86:1098–1100. 1963.—By use of the soluble antigens of ten species of pathogenic clostridia and specific globulins, it has been possible to divide these organisms into a number of groups based upon the presence or abs

27. Bench-to-bedside review: Genetic influences on meningococcal disease
This review discusses the possible involvement of a variety of genetic polymorphisms on the course of meningococcal disease. It has been shown that several common genetic polymorphisms can either influence the susceptibility to meningococcal disease or can account for a higher mortality rate in patients. Gene polymorphisms concerning antibody receptors, lipo

28. SEROLOGY OF THE SOLUBLE ANTIGENS OF CLOSTRIDIUM PERFRINGENS TYPES A-F BY AGAR-GEL DIFFUSION
Ellner, Paul D. (University of Vermont, Burlington) and Carolyn D. Bohan. Serology of the soluble antigens of Clostridium perfringens types A–F by agar-gel diffusion. J. Bacteriol. 83:284–296. 1962.—A serological study by agar-gel diffusion of the soluble antigens of 39 strains of the Clostridium perfringens group has shown them to be extremely heterog

29. Isolation and Characterization of Viruses from the Kidneys of Rana pipiens with Renal Adenocarcinoma Before and After Passage in the Red Eft (Triturus viridescens)
Viruses were isolated from kidneys of normal and renal tumor-bearing Vermont Rana pipiens after subinoculation into red eft newts (Triturus viridescens). Organs of efts inoculated with viable cell suspensions from four of seven tumor-bearing kidneys yielded virus (LT-1, -2, -3, -4) when inoculated into TH-1 (Terrapene heart) cell culture. One tumor-bearing k

30. GROWTH OF AZOTOBACTER IN DEUTERIUM OXIDE
Johnstone, D. B. (University of Vermont, Burlington). Growth of Azotobacter in deuterium oxide. J. Bacteriol. 83:867–870. 1962.—To the small list of bacteria that are reported to have been cultured in fully deuterated media can be added Azotobacter agilis and A. vinelandii. Moreover, these bacteria, although growing in a deuterium oxide medium with deute

31. SEROLOGY OF THE SOLUBLE ANTIGENS OF THE PATHOGENIC CLOSTRIDIA
Ellner, Paul D. (University of Vermont, Burlington), and Stanley S. Green. Serology of the soluble antigens of the pathogenic clostridia. J. Bacteriol. 86:1084–1097. 1963.—Soluble antigens of 42 strains, representing nine species of clostridia commonly occurring in human infections, were prepared by growing the organisms in a nonantigenic medium. Serolog

32. Bias in the Listeria monocytogenes Enrichment Procedure: Lineage 2 Strains Outcompete Lineage 1 Strains in University of Vermont Selective Enrichments
Listeria monocytogenes can be isolated from a range of food products and may cause food-borne outbreaks or sporadic cases of listeriosis. L. monocytogenes is divided into three genetic lineages and 13 serotypes. Strains of three serotypes (1/2a, 1/2b, and 4b) are associated with most human cases of listeriosis. Of these, strains of serotypes 1/2b and 4b belo

33. CAPSULAR POLYSACCHARIDE OF AZOTOBACTER AGILIS1
Cohen, Gary H. (University of Vermont, Burlington), and Donald B. Johnstone. Capsular polysaccharide of Azotobacter agilis. J. Bacteriol. 88:1695–1699. 1964.—Capsular polysaccharide from Azotobacter agilis strain 132 was recovered from washed cells by alkaline digestion. The polysaccharide was purified by centrifugation, repeated alcohol precipitation, S

34. On the Use of Mist Nets for Population Studies of Birds
Studies in which birds are captured in mist nets, marked, and released can yield much more information than previously realized. When nets are erected, the capture rate is initially high and then decreases with time, as more and more of the resident bird individuals in the vicinity are captured and learn to avoid the nets a second time. The capture rate even

35. Audit of necropsies in a British district general hospital.
A comprehensive study was made of the value of necropsies carried out over a six month period in Peterborough Health Authority, using a modification of the format proposed by Schned et al in Vermont, United States of America. Cause of death, clinical correlation, clinical factors contributing to death and clinical evaluation of the necropsy were recorded. Th

36. Comparison of membrane filter, multiple-fermentation-tube, and presence-absence techniques for detecting total coliforms in small community water systems.
Methods for detecting total coliform bacteria in drinking water were compared using 1,483 different drinking water samples from 15 small community water systems in Vermont and New Hampshire. The methods included the membrane filter (MF) technique, a 10-tube fermentation tube (FT) technique, and the presence-absence (P-A) test. Each technique was evaluated us
