Branhamella Catarrhalis

In an attempt to elucidate the relation between Micrococcus cryophilus, Neisseria caviae, Neisseria ovis, and Branhamella catarrhalis, fractions derived from outer membranes of a strain of each organism were examined for protein composition by SDS – polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Micrococcus cryophilus outer membrane protein showed extensive similarities to that of N. ovis and contained a heat-modifiable protein which behaved almost identically with the corresponding bands previously shown to exist in N. caviae and N. oris. Branhamella catarrhalis protein was distinctly different from those of M. cryophilus and the two 'false neisserias' N. caviae and N. oris.
