Abstract
Three strains of Campylobacter fetus subsp. fetus isolated from cases of gastroenteritis are reported. DNA-DNA hybridizations in addition to biochemical tests were used to confirm the identification of the isolates as C. fetus since all strains grew at 42 degrees C. These isolates, like other C. fetus strains, are susceptible to cephalothin and thus would not have been detected in laboratories with Campylobacter isolation media containing this component.
