  Fig. 1 Colony and microscopic characteristics of Campylobacter hyointestinalis. (A) Gray, flat, irregular and spreading colonies were observed on a blood agar plate after 48 hr of microaerobic incubation. (B) Curved gram-negative rods from a smear of colonies obtained from the blood agar plate (× 1,000).
