Campylobacter butzleri sp. nov. isolated from humans and animals with diarrheal illness

Seventy-eight aerotolerant Campylobacter isolates were characterized phenotypically and by DNA hybridization (hydroxyapatite method at 50 and 65 degrees C). Two DNA relatedness groups were found. (i) Sixty-four strains belonged to aerotolerant Campylobacter DNA hybridization group 2. These organisms were isolated from humans, primarily with diarrheal illness, and animals on several continents. Strains were aerotolerant at 30 and 36 degrees C and catalase negative or weakly catalase positive, grew in media containing glycine and on MacConkey agar, were susceptible to nalidixic acid, and were resistant to cephalothin. The name Campylobacter butzleri sp. nov. is proposed for this group. (ii) DNA hybridization group 1 consisted of the type strain of Campylobacter cryaerophila and 13 additional strains isolated from 10 animals outside the United States and from three humans within the United States. This group was genetically diverse; five strains were closely related to the type strain of C. cryaerophila (DNA hybridization group 1A), and eight strains were more closely related to one another (DNA hybridization group 1B). Strains in DNA hybridization group 1B were phenotypically diverse, with two of eight strains resembling C. cryaerophila. The seven strains from DNA hybridization groups 1A and 1B which resembled C. cryaerophila and the C. cryaerophila type strain were aerotolerant only at 30 degrees C and catalase positive, did not grow in glycine or on MacConkey agar, were generally susceptible to nalidixic acid, and were resistant to cephalothin. The remaining six strains of DNA hybridization group 1B phenotypically resembled C. butzleri; however, they were generally catalase positive and susceptible to nalidixic acid and cephalothin. DNA hybridization group 1B is not designated as a separate species at this time since it cannot, with certainty, be separated genetically from C. cryaerophila or phenotypically from C. butzleri.
