Eight strains of Moraxella phenylpyruvica have been isolated from clinical material in the United Kingdom, the first to be reported from this country. They were characterized, together with three strains of M. phenylpyruvica of the National Collection of Type Cultures (NCTC), and compared with NCTC strains of eight other Moraxella species. The strains of M. phenylpyruvica formed a homogeneous group which is readily distinguishable from other Moraxella species. Deamination of phenylalanine is not restricted to M. phenylpyruvica which, however, is urease positive and is stimulated by bile, in contrast to other Moraxella spp.
在英国,已从临床样本中分离出8株苯丙酮酸莫拉菌,这是该国首次报告的此类菌株。对这些菌株以及国家典型培养物保藏中心(NCTC)的3株苯丙酮酸莫拉菌进行了特性鉴定,并与其他8种莫拉菌的NCTC菌株进行了比较。苯丙酮酸莫拉菌的菌株形成了一个同质群体,很容易与其他莫拉菌属物种区分开来。苯丙氨酸脱氨并不局限于苯丙酮酸莫拉菌,但与其他莫拉菌属不同的是,该菌脲酶呈阳性且受胆汁刺激。
