title: Moraxella (Branhamella) catarrhalis: restriction enzyme analysis typing with HinfI, HaeIII and PstI.
abstract: Restriction enzyme analysis typing with HinfI, HaeIII and PstI was performed on Moraxella (Branhamella) catarrhalis strains consecutively collected from children suspected of respiratory tract infection and the type strain. Use of HinfI gave the most distinct patterns. Great polymorphism was seen among strains.
