Abstract excerpt

The molecular basis for the diversity of the major outer membrane protein (MOMP) P2 of non-encapsulated Haemophilus influenzae was analyzed by direct sequencing of fragments of the P2 genes, obtained by the polymerase chain reaction. Genetically divergent H. influenzae strains were isolated from...
