Co‐Existence of Colonies with Different Serotypes and Other Biological Characteristics in Clinical Isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

The biological characteristics of individual colonies of Pseudomonas aeruginosa from 138 specimens were investigated. Of these isolates, 90 (65.2%) formed colonies of similar appearance and morphology, and 48 (34.8%) formed colonies which differed either in appearance or morphology. The individual colonies of 138 isolates were tested for serotype. The former 90 isolates formed only the colonies with one kind of serotype, whereas 17 of the latter 48 isolates formed the colonies with more than one kind of serotype. All the 9 isolates tested also differed in other biochemical characteristics: acid productions from xylose, mannitol and maltose, urease production and gelatin liquefaction. β‐Lactamase activity was investigated in 7 isolates forming colonies with more than one serotype. There were no marked differences in β‐lactamase activity among the different colonies in 5 isolates but marked differences among those in the other 2 isolates.
