  • Title: Branhamella catarrhalis: fatty acid and lipopolysaccharide analysis of an atypical strain from blood culture.
    Author: Wüst J, Doern GV, von Graevenitz A.
    Journal: Diagn Microbiol Infect Dis; 1988 Jun; 10(2):131-4. PubMed ID: 3147160.
    Abstract:
    A Branhamella catarrhalis-like organism was isolated from blood cultures; it was atypical in showing negative nitrate and nitrite and positive gamma-glutamylaminopeptidase reactions, in agglutinating with Neisseria meningitidis antisera, and in forming butyrous colonies. Cell-wall fatty-acid and lipopolysaccharide analysis provided evidence that this isolate was an atypical B. catarrhalis.
