Urease-positive thermophilic Campylobacter species
Article Abstract:
Since the first isolation of urease-positive thermophilic Campylobacter (UPTC) in 1985, approximately 200 UPTC isolates obtained from the natural environment, including wild birds in Europe and Asia, are detected. Three subspecies taxa are proposed recently, one of which, C. lari subspecies ureasum would be for the UPTC organisms.

Characterization of urease-positive thermophilic Campylobacter subspecies by multilocus enzyme electrophoresis typing
Article Abstract:
Research has been conducted on urease-positive Campylobacter isolates. The authors have compared these isolates genotypically via the use of multilocus enzyme electrophoresis, have examined allelic variation around enzyme loci, and have reported that these isolates are genetically hypervariable.
