We studied the biochemical relationships of “Enterobacterium A12” of Sachs to Shigella boydii 14 and Escherichia coli 032. “Enterobacterium A12” differed from typical strans of S. boydii 14 only in its ability to produce gas from glucose. Otherwise, “Enterobacterium A12” and E. coli 032 were biochemically quite different. On the basis of these findings we propose that “Enterobacterium A12” should be regarded as an aerogenic variant of S. boydii 14, analogous to the aerogenic varieties of Shigella flexneri 6.
