Abstract

The proteins of nine strains of , representing serovars I through IX, were analyzed by using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and a sensitive silver staining procedure. The electrophoretic patterns of the nine strains tested could be divided into two distinct major groups, one group consisting of serovars II, IV, V, VII, VIII, and IX (group A) and one group consisting of serovars I, III, and VI (group B).
