Re-evaluation of the Auxotab (Inolex) Enteric 1 System for identification of enterobacteriaceae.

abstract：:Proteus mirabilis (P. mirabilis), a gram-negative enteric bacterium, frequently causes urinary tract infections. Many virulence factors of uropathogenic P. mirabilis have been identified, including urease, flagella, hemolysin and fimbriae. However, the functions of polyphosphate kinase (PPK), which are related to the ...
