Abstract
A total of 101 Campylobacter isolates from Nigerian children with or without gastroenteritis were biotyped and serogrouped by using the Lior typing schemes (H. Lior, J. Clin. Microbiol. 20:636-640, 1984; H. Lior, D. L. Woodward, J. A. Edgar, L. J. Laroche, and P. Gill, J. Clin. Microbiol. 15:761-768, 1982). Fifty-three (52.5%) of the isolates were Campylobacter jejuni biotype I, 29 (28.7%) were C. jejuni biotype II, 10 (9.9%) were Campylobacter coli biotype I, and 9 (8.9%) were C. coli biotype II. Serogroup 36 was the most common (20.7%) in this study, in contrast with serogroup 1 (18.5%) earlier reported from Canada (Lior et al., J. Clin. Microbiol. 15:761-768, 1982).
