Abstract excerpt
The whole-cell carbohydrate patterns of 14 Haemophilus-like strains isolated from diseased birds were examined by capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. The analysis of the peracetylated aldononitrile and O-methyloxime derivatives allowed the differentiation between the phenotypically and genetically different isolates. Starting from a pure culture the procedure needs only 5 hours for the preparation of...
