Aminoglycoside-phosphotransferases APH(3')-IV and APH(3") synthesized by a strain of Campylobacter coli.

Campylobacter coli strain 981 of animal origin was resistant to erythromycin, tetracycline, streptomycin, kanamycin, ribostamycin, neomycin, paromomycin, lividomycin, and butirosin. Resistance to aminoglycosides of strain 981 was mediated by phosphotransferases APH (3') type-IV and APH (3"). C. coli 981 harboured three plasmids of 24, 34, and 40 Megadaltons respectively. None of these plasmids were transferable to Escherichia coli K-12 by conjugation.

[Digestive complications of Campylobacter enteritis].

Fifty children with acute diarrhoea, in which the only germ found in stools was Campylobacter fetus jejuni, are studied. Digestive complications occurred are discussed. Nine (18%) had lactose malabsorption, associated in two (4%) with saccharose malabsorption and in one (2%) with cow's milk protein intolerance. All complications were temporary, and carbohydrate malabsorption disappeared between one and three months.

Ring chromosome 6 in a child with minimal abnormalities.

We describe a boy with a ring chromosome 6 and short stature, mild micrognathia, and bilateral transitional/simian creases. Five other patients with a ring 6 have been reported. The clinical and cytogenetic observations of all six patients are compared and discussed.
