STUDY OF BASIC BIOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF BACTERIA SPECIES BORDETELLA HOLMESII
Abstract
The article is devoted to the study of the main biological characteristics of bacteria of the species Bordetella holmesii. Bacteria of this type are gram-negative, motionless cocco-like rods, located in smears singly or in pairs. Like other representatives of the genus Bordetella, they are subject to weak sacchalitic activity. They are not able to utilize compounds such as sodium citrate and urea, they do not break down such amino acids as lysine, arginine and ornithine. At the same time, we revealed a positive reaction to catalase, B-galactosidase, tryptophanedaminase, gelatinase in the studied strain. The obtained research results will be used to create a scheme for indicating the identification of bacteria of the species Bordetella holmesii.
