✦ Synopsis

The radiation resistance of 78 different strains of Acinetobacter sp. 42 from clinical isolates and 36 from other sources were compared with 15 clinical isolates and 12 other strains from Denmark. None of the Canadian strains was as resistant as resistant-enhanced Danish strains. Four strains had Dlo values of 3.1-3.6 kGy. Irradiated and unirradiated cells from all strains grew well, when cultured in Trypticase-Soy Broth at 30Β°C. Most cultures grew after overnight incubation, tt was concluded that there would be no difficulty in detecting these strains, using ISO methodology for establishing the radiation sterilization dose for devices.

Bacteria of the genus Acinetobacter are ubiquitous in nature. These organisms were invariably susceptible to many antibiotics in the 1970s. Since that time, acinetobacters have emerged as multiresistant opportunistic nosocomial pathogens. The taxonomy of the genus Acinetobacter underwent extensive r

## Abstract For characterizing the radiation‐resistant __Acinetobacter__ strain FO‐1 reported in the previous paper (1980), we investigated the structure of cell wall, the cellular fatty acid composition, and the detailed taxonomic characteristics. The results denoted that the cell division occurre
