  • Title: Differentiation between major species of the Actinobacillus--Haemophilus--Pasteurella group by gas chromatography of trifluoroacetic acid anhydride derivatives from whole-cell methanolysates.

    Journal: J Chromatogr; 1985 Jul 12; 342(1):13-23. PubMed ID: 4044743.
    Abstract:
    A method based on whole-cell methanolysis and trifluoroacetic acid anhydride derivatization was developed for routine laboratory differentiation between isolates from the Actinobacillus--Haemophilus--Pasteurella group. All species, except Haemophilus aphrophilus, contained D-glycero-D-mannoheptose, although in varying concentrations. The distribution of this sugar could be used to distinguish H. aphrophilus from Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, H. paraphrophilus, H. influenzae type b, Pasteurella haemolytica, P. multocida and P. ureae, and also H. influenzae type b from Pasteurellae. The pattern of major sugars in P. ureae and P. haemolytica resembled that of A. actinomycetemcomitans. Major fatty acids of the whole-cell methanolysates provided no basis of interspecies differentiation.
