Do differences in carbon source utilisation distinguish Campylobacter jejuni from Campylobacter coli?
From our analysis we have identified a phenotypic method and two genotypic methods based on propionic utilisation that might be applicable for distinguishing between C. jejuni and C. coli.
Damage was observed in nearly two-thirds of patients, and occurred earlier in the chronic active pattern. Disease duration, thrombocytopenia and alopecia at onset predicted damage.
