A Defined Medium for Haemophilus influenzae and Haemophilus parainfluenzae [PDF]
SUMMARY: A defined medium is described for the growth of Haemophilus influenzae and H. parainfluenzae which can be used either as a liquid medium or solidified with agar. The purine and pyrimidine, vitamin, amino acid and mineral salt requirements for three strains have been analysed.

A glycoconjugate of Haemophilus influenzae Type b capsular polysaccharide with tetanus toxoid protein: hydrodynamic properties mainly influenced by the carbohydrate [PDF]
Three important physical properties which may affect the performance of glycoconjugate vaccines against serious disease are molar mass (molecular weight), heterogeneity (polydispersity), and conformational flexibility in solution.

Comparison of transformation mechanisms of Haemophilus parainfluenzae and Haemophilus influenzae [PDF]
Transformation pathways in two closely related bacterial species, Haemophilus parainfluenzae and Haemophilus influenzae, were studied. Both organisms rapidly take up transforming DNA within minutes into specialized membranous structures on the cell surface (transformasomes).
