AB  - The speciesHaemophilus influenzae belongs to the genus Haemophilus and the family 
      Pasteurellaceae. H influenzae are small, nonmotile, nonspore forming, 
      Gram-negative, pleomorphic rods that range in shape from coccobacilli to long 
      filaments. They require X and V factors (hemin and NAD, respectively) for aerobic 
      growth, and may be facultatively anaerobic (1) Encapsulated H. influenzae are 
      classified into six antigenically distinct serotypes (a-f), and have a clonal 
      population structure with two major global subdivisions (I and II) (2,3). 
      Nonencapsulated H. infuenzae (NCHi) appear to have a nonclonal population 
      composition, but a broader analysis of NCHi in the future may reveal that the 
      population is not so distinct from encapsulated H influenzae (4). Both 
      encapsulated H influenzae and NCHi exhibit wide genetic diversity (5).
