Nongonococcal, nonmeningococcal neisseriae are part of the normal respiratory flora and infrequently cause disease. These organisms include Neisseria lactamica, Neisseria mucosa, Neisseria sicca, Neisseria flavescens, Neisseria subflava , Neisseria perflava , Neisseria flava , and Branhamella catarrhalis (previously classified as Neisseria catarrhalis). Blood cultures positive for these bacteria have been associated with serious infections, including endocarditis, septicemia, and meningitis. In a retrospective survey of a 10-year period, 1970-1980, eight patients were identified at Hartford Hospital (Hartford, Conn.) whose blood cultures were positive for nongonococcal, nonmeningococcal neisseriae. In four patients, the neisseria blood isolates were associated with serious infections: two with endocarditis, one with sepsis, and one with meningitis. In four other patients, the neisseria blood isolates were contaminants.
非淋菌性、非脑膜炎奈瑟菌是正常呼吸道菌群的一部分，很少引起疾病。这些微生物包括乳糖奈瑟菌、粘膜炎奈瑟菌、干燥奈瑟菌、微黄奈瑟菌、浅黄奈瑟菌、全黄奈瑟菌、黄色奈瑟菌和卡他布兰汉菌（以前归类为卡他奈瑟菌）。这些细菌血培养阳性与严重感染有关，包括心内膜炎、败血症和脑膜炎。在对1970年至1980年这10年期间的一项回顾性调查中，康涅狄格州哈特福德市哈特福德医院确定了8例患者，其血培养中非淋菌性、非脑膜炎奈瑟菌呈阳性。在4例患者中，奈瑟菌血分离株与严重感染有关：2例患有心内膜炎，1例患有败血症，1例患有脑膜炎。在其他4例患者中，奈瑟菌血分离株为污染物。
