title: Moraxella bovis hemolysin.
abstract: Moraxella bovis hemolysin was readily filterable through polycarbonate membrane filters, but not through nitrocellulose filters. The hemolysin was filterable through polycarbonate filters with pore diameters of greater than or equal to 0.015 micron (APD). Of the hemolytic activity of cell-free filtrates, 74% could be pelleted by ultracentrifugation at 100,000 X g for 2 1/2 hours. Hemolytic activity could be demonstrated in preparations of outer membrane fragments isolated from log-phase cultures. Hemolysin in M bovis broth cultures reached a maximum concentration in late logarithmic phase (4.5 hours after inoculation) and declined thereafter. Hemolysin was inactivated by heat, trypsin, formalin, and lyophilization.
