Department of Biomedical Science, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Tokyo, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, 113, Japan Serological studies on 27 strains of non-pigmented Bacteroides isolated from the human oral cavity revealed multiple serotypes within B. buccae. B. capillus (= B. buccae) and B. pentosaceus (= B. buccae) were found to be serogroups within B. buccae. B. denticola possessed cross-reactive antigens with B. buccae. Tested strains of B. oralis, B. veroralis, B. oris, and B. heparinolyticus were clearly differentiated from each other.
