Strain 44122 was used for production of the Swedish whole-cell vaccine from the 1950s to 1978. PFGE of several clones from 11 different vials containing control material for vaccine production during the 8-year period from 1956 to 1964 showed heterogeneity of profiles. At least four different profiles could be documented (the profiles are identified by suffixes indicating year/month).
