  abstract  = {E. coli stcains isolated from patients with urinary tcact infecrions (UTn very often possess mannose"sensitive (MS) and mannose-resistant (MR) adherence facmrs (fimbriae). According to their receptor specificity the mannose-resistant adhesins can be divided inm several types, P, S, M and X. We have cloned rhe determinants of rhree groups of UTI E. coli adhesins, MS, p and S, and prepared specific aorisera against the fimbriae antigens. 189 hernagglutination (HA+) -positive stcains, 96 fecal isolates and 93 strains isoJated from UTI . have been tesred with rhese specific antisera and further characterized by receptor specific : HA, HA parteras and further of rhe "common 0 serogroups" 01, 02, 04, 06, 07, 08, 018, ' 025, 075, most prevalenr in UTI, and hemolysin production. · 68 (73 \%) of the UTI srrains a.nd 50 (52\%) of the fecal isolates showed P-receptor specificiry; 16 (17\%) of the uropathogenic bacteria and 33 (34\%) of the fecal strains exhibited S, M or X-fimbriae antigens. 24\% of rhe P-hemagglutinating (P+) strains reacted wirb P (F8)-specific antiserum. In contrast, more than three quaner of the s+-srrains were agglutinated by S-specific antiserum. HA-pattern VJ and 018 amigen were found to be associared with P-fimbriae strains, wbereas HA-pattern V and VII and the 0 anrigens 02 (M-type), 06 and 018 (5-type) occurred most frequently in p- -strains. A high percentage of P-fimbriated strains showed mannose-sensitive hemagglurination and hemolysin production.},

The results of host range and conjugation experiments showed that the sensitivity of bacteria to the phage is associated with rhe presence of 018ac antigens. With sorne of rhe 018 strains rhe phage Q18A produces clear Iysis on bacterial lawns only when applied at a high multiplicity and moreover the phage does not multiply. With rhe help of the phage Ql8A, E. coli 0 18ac strains could be divided inro rwo serologically clistinct subgroups called 018A and 018A1• E. coli strains belanging to the sugroup 0 ISAare sensitive to phage Q t8A wheteas bacteria of subgroup A1 are resistanr.},

  abstract  = {The genetic determinant coding for the Pspecific F8 fimbriae was cloned from · the chromosome of the Escherichia coli wild-type strain 2980 (018: K5: H5: FlC, F8). The F8 determinant was further subcloned into the Pstl site of pBR322 and a restriction map was established. In a Southern hybridization experiment identity between the chromosomally encoded F8 determinant of 2980 and its cloned Counterpart was demonstrated. The cloned F8 fimbri{\"a}e and those of the wild type strain consist of a protein subunit of nearly 20 kDa. F8 fimbriated strains were agglutinated by an F8 polyclonal antiserum, caused mannose-resistant hemagglutination and attached to human uroepi thellal cells. The cloned F8 determinant was weil expressed in a variety of host strains.},
