Evaluation of the Biolog MicroStation system for yeast identification.
One hundred and fifty-nine isolates representing 16 genera and 53 species of yeasts were processed with the Biolog MicroStation System for yeast identification. Thirteen genera and 38 species were included in the Biolog database. For these 129 isolates, correct identifications to the species level were 13.2, 39.5 and 48.8% after 24, 48 and 72 hours incubation at 30 degrees C, respectively. Thre...
متن کاملMulti-laboratory evaluation of an automated microbial detection/identification system.
An automated and computerized system (Automicrobic System [AMS]) for the detection of frequently encountered bacteria in clinical urine specimens was tested in a collaborative study among six laboratories. The sensitivity, specificity, reliability, and reproducibility of the AMS were determined, and the system was compared with conventional detection and identification systems. In this study, p...
متن کاملEvaluation of Biolog system for identification of some gram-negative bacteria of clinical importance.
The Biolog system (Biolog, Inc., Hayward, Calif.) was evaluated for the identification of 55 gram-negative taxa (789 strains) likely to be encountered commonly in clinical laboratories. The Biolog system performed best with oxidase-positive fermenters and biochemically active nonfermenters and had the most problems with unreactive nonfermenters. It gave significantly better results when the Mic...
متن کاملCharacterization and Identification of Lactobacillus Acidophilus Using Biolog Rapid Identification System
Objective: The present study was carried out to isolate and identify L. acidophilus and to compare the effect of inoculation methods and cultivation conditions on the yield of the bacteria. Methods: Probiotic Lactobacillus strain was isolated from a commercial yogurt and the characterization of the bacteria was performed using gram stain, motility, catalase, biochemical tests and morphological ...
متن کاملPotential and limitations of BIOLOG for microbial community analysis
Characterization of community-level substrate utilization via incubation of environmental samples in BIOLOG microplates has been increasingly applied in many areas of microbial ecology. The easily-produced multivariate profile allows for intensive spatial and temporal analysis of microbial communities, and it is a sensitive and reproducible tool for characterizing microbial communities. This wo...
