ABSTRACT
The biotypes of Haemophilus influenzae and Haemophilus parainfluenzae isolates were determined with three commercially available biochemical test kits: the IDS RapID NH system, the Neisseria-Haemophilus identification test (NHI card), and the API NH strip. The API NH strip performed best, correctly classifying the biotypes of 371 of 380 (97.6%) different challenge strains.
