![]() One such problem and the manner in which it has been partially overcome is exemplified by the classification of organisms in the Salmonella group. ![]() Infection with an organism of this group will give rise to the production of flagellar and somatic agglutinins. Tifico H: positive 1:160 Paratifico A positive 1:160 Paratifico B: positive 1:160 Proteus OX-19: positive 1:80 Brusella Abortus: positive 1:80. The classification of the organism responsible for the particular infection, according to the Kaufmann-White scheme (1), depends in part on the differentiation of these agglutinins by the use of chemically treated bacterial suspensions. Formolized suspensions enable detection of flagellar agglutinins, whereas alcohol-extracted organisms, devoid of flagellar antigens permit the detection of somatic agglutinins. ![]() ![]() A typhus infection will result in the production of agglutinins for B. ![]()
