Haemophilus parainfluenzae ATCC 33392

Haemophilus parainfluenzae ATCC 33392 is a Gram-negative bacterium characterized by its rod shape and the presence of two membranes. This species is classified as a facultative anaerobe, meaning it can thrive in both aerobic and anaerobic environments. It is mesophilic, typically growing best at moderate temperatures. This microorganism is non-motile, lacking flagella, which implies that it does not have the ability to move independently. H. parainfluenzae is free-living, suggesting it can exist outside of host organisms, although it is associated with various hosts in its natural habitat. The strain has a single replicon and is cataloged under accession number AEWU00000000.1, which allows for further genetic and biochemical studies. Understanding the traits of H. parainfluenzae can provide insights into its ecological roles, such as its interactions within microbial communities and its potential impacts on host health. The ability of H. parainfluenzae to exist in both aerobic and anaerobic conditions indicates its adaptability to various environmental niches. This trait may contribute to its biotic relationships and survival strategies, allowing it to exploit different ecological settings. The study of such bacteria can enhance our understanding of microbial diversity and the complexities of microbial interactions in host-associated environments.
