Evaluation of new biomarker genes for differentiating Haemophilus influenzae from Haemophilus haemolyticus.


ABSTRACT: PCR detecting the protein D (hpd) and fuculose kinase (fucK) genes showed high sensitivity and specificity for identifying Haemophilus influenzae and differentiating it from H. haemolyticus. Phylogenetic analysis using the 16S rRNA gene demonstrated two distinct groups for H. influenzae and H. haemolyticus.
