exudate in the peritoneal cavity; hemorrhagic necrosis occurs following intradermal inoculation of the rabbit; agglutinated by antisera to Bordelella pertussis Bordetella p. 402 Not as above 98 98. Organisms usually 0.2 to 0.5 micron wide and 0.5 to 2.0 microns long but frequently produce long filaments; do not grow on nutrient agar without the addition of X factor or V factor or both or the addition of diphosphothiamine or adenosinetri- phosphate; colonies on suitable media rarely more than 1 mm in diameter after 2 days' incubation; various species have been reported as responsible for or associated with viruses in: (i) Purulent meningitis and conjunctivitis in man {H. influenzae) (ii) Sub-acute endocarditis {H. haemolyticus) (iii) Acute and sub-acute conjunctivitis in man (H. aegyplius) (iv) Soft chancre {H. ducreiji) (v) Vesicular eruptions in the genitals of cattle {H. citreus) (vi) Ulcers of trout (H. piscium) (vii) The respiratory tract of man (various species) and preputial secretions of dogs {H. haemoglobinophilus) (viii) Pharyngitis (H. parahaemolyiicus) (ix) Non-pathogenic {H. parainfiuenzae) (x) Fowl coryza {H. gallinarum) (xi) Swine influenza {H. suis) (xii) Respiratory tract of ferrets {H. pulorioram) Of the above, H. ducreyi and H. putoriorum are the ones most likely to terminate here. The others may do so owing to variation in biochemical reactions Haemophilus p. 406 Not as above 99 99. Organisms grow in a mineral salts medium with an alkylamine as the sole source of carbon and nitrogen Protaminobacter p. 200 Not as above 100 100. Organisms found growing in waters among decomposing plant tissue; coccobacillary forms embedded in a gelatinous matrix which usually forms in long finger-like proc- esses in which the cells are well isolated from each other; produce a zoogloeal mass and cartilaginous colonies in culture Zoogloea p. 206 Not as above 101 101. Litmus milk alkaline 102 Litmus milk acid or unchanged Achromobacter p. SCO 102. Colonies on nutrient agar colorless; up to 1 mm in diameter in 5 days at 28° C; grow autotrophically, oxidizing sodium thiosulfate to sodium sulfate and sulfuric acid Thiobacillus p. 83 Note: This entry applies to T. novellus if it produces no acid from carbohy- drates. Not as above Alcaligenes p. 297 103. Acid and gas from glucose 104 Acid but no gas from glucose 109 No acid or gas from glucose 120 104. Colonies yellow; flagella polar Xanthomonas p. 152 {X. plantaginis and X. conjac (if lactose-negative) terminate here.) Colonies not yellow 105 105. Organisms produce a luminescent growth on agar containing 2.8 to 3.0 per cent salt; usually no luminescence on media with the usual 0.5 i)er cent salt Photobacterium p. 193 Not as above 106
