Part Descriptions
LP248054-1 Haemophilus influenzae hpd gene
Haemophilus influenzae is a gram-negative rod-shaped bacterium and a common source of upper-respiratory tract infections (URTI) including the middle ear. H influenzae is commonly isolated in the clinical laboratory but differentiating H influenzae from H haemolyticus is difficult because they are phylogenetically so closely related. There are three primers used in tandem that can amplify the genes sodC, fucK, hpd in order to differentiate H influenzae from H haemolyticus. PMID: 25883794

LP248054-1 Haemophilus influenzae hpd gene
Haemophilus influenza is a pleomorphic gram-negative coccobacillus. H influenzae is divided into six serotype (A-F) based on their capsular polysaccharides. The majority of haemophilus infections are caused by H influenza serotype B (HIB) which causes pneumonia, bacteremia, meningitis, epiglottitis, septic arthritis, cellulitis, otitis media, purulent pericarditis, endocarditis and osteomyelitis. Infections with the remaining serotypes lead to similar disease processes as HIB. Unencapsulated H influenzae that is not able to be typed (nontypable H influenzae) can cause ear infections in children and bronchitis in adults but also bacteremia and bacteremic pneumonia. Nontypable H influenza is the main cause of invasive H influenzae infections in all age groups. Transmission of H influenzae is by direct contact with respiratory aerosols. Neonates can become infected with H influenza by aspirating amniotic fluid or through contact with genital tract secretions.[https://www.cdc.gov/hi-disease/clinicians.html]
