The degree of serological similarity of saprophytic corynebacteria have been studied using immunoassay ELISA analysis, that is seven collection strains, belonging to Corynebacterium glutamicum (3 strains), C. ammoniagenes (1 strain), C. vitarumen (1 strain), C. variabilis (2 strains) and three industrial strains-lysine producers. Intact and heated bacteria cells have been used as antigens. It has been shown that industrial strain C. glutamicum 22L and collection strains C. glutamicum IMV AC-715, IMV AC-714, IMV AC-733 have the highest degree of serological relationship. C. vitarumen IMV AC-718, C variabilis IMV AC-716 as well as Corynebacterium sp. E531 and VNIIgenetics 90 are close to them according to their serological properties. C. ammoniagenes IMV AC-732 and C. variabilis IMV AC-717 strains have the lowest degree of similarity with other saprophytic corynebacteria which have been studied.
