Allelic variation in srtAs of Streptococcus suis strains.

abstract：:Previous studies had shown that Mycoplasma pulmonis contained a bovine serum albumin-dependent, membrane-associated hemolysin. Biochemical analyses were performed to further characterize this activity. The membrane-associated hemolytic activity could be activated by dithiothreitol and beta-mercaptoethanol, and inactiv...
