The cultural, biochemical, antigenic and antibiotic susceptibility characteristics of 17 strains of Haemophilus equigenitalis, the causative organism of contagious equine metritis (CEM), were studied. Biochemical characteristics were investigated using both conventional method and the API ZYM system of enzyme detection. The biochemical profile of the H. equigenitalis strains was unique and differed from the other bacterial species studied under the same experimental conditions (H. influenzae and H. parainfluenzae, B. abortus and B. melitensis, P. multocida, A. calcoaceticus). The required X and V factors were never demonstrated and therefore the placement of H. equigenitalis in the genus Haemophilus is discutable. This species presented an, antigenic homogeneity and exhibited no cross-reaction with the other strains tested in this study. Antibiotic susceptibility was studied by diffusion test and MIC determination. The strains were susceptible to all antibiotics with the exception of clindamycin, lincomycin and streptomycin; where the streptomycin resistance was inconstant.
对17株马生殖道嗜血杆菌（马传染性子宫炎的病原体）的培养特性、生化特性、抗原特性及抗生素敏感性进行了研究。采用传统方法和API ZYM酶检测系统研究了其生化特性。马生殖道嗜血杆菌菌株的生化图谱独特，与在相同实验条件下研究的其他细菌种类（流感嗜血杆菌、副流感嗜血杆菌、流产布鲁氏菌、马尔他布鲁氏菌、多杀性巴氏杆菌、醋酸钙不动杆菌）不同。从未证明其需要X因子和V因子，因此马生殖道嗜血杆菌在嗜血杆菌属中的归属存在争议。该菌呈现抗原同质性，且与本研究中测试的其他菌株无交叉反应。通过扩散试验和最小抑菌浓度测定研究了抗生素敏感性。除克林霉素、林可霉素和链霉素外，这些菌株对所有抗生素敏感；其中链霉素耐药性不稳定。
