  • Title: Non-typable Haemophilus influenzae from a single hospital: epidemiological markers.
    Author: Sánchez Planas L, Viñas M.
    Journal: Microbios; 1998; 93(374):55-68. PubMed ID: 9670555.
    Abstract:
    A total of 51 strains of non-typable Haemophilus influenzae isolated from a single hospital were subjected to analysis of biochemical traits, outer membrane protein (OMP) profiles, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) electrophoresis and antibiotic susceptibility determination in order to establish a method for bacterial typing. Results proved that none of the methods tested were useful for typing purposes, although the data showed that (1) OMP profiles were extremely variable; (2) LPS profiles were uniform; (3) the multiresistant strains manifested different resistance patterns; and (4) biochemically, all strains were closely related.
