Abstract

SUMMARY

For the proper classification of the and , the serological relationship should be considered. In a serological comparison using strains of Moraxella, . and . against polyvalent antiserum, adsorbed polyvalent antiserum and serotypes 1-10, it was found that one of the five D. strains was serologically the same as . , type 7. The other four strains of . and . were agglutinated by adsorbed polyvalent antiserum and share partial antigens with certain serotypes of . . Henriksen (1952) suggested further study was necessary before Mima polymorpha var. could be included in the genus . In the present study, 57% of the strains studied were agglutinated by polyvalent . antiserum and M. polymorpha var. oxidans (pool of 3 sera). The strain of lwoffi var. brevis included was agglutinated only by antiserum.
