Rapid urea broth test for yeasts.
A rapid, miniaturized, urea broth test useful for detecting urease activity of yeasts was compared to Christensen urea agar. All urease-producing yeasts tested were positive on both media; however, 60% were reactive in the urea R broth within 30 min, and the remainder were reactive within 4 h. This urea multiwell test may be useful as a rapid screening method for detecting urease-producing yeas...
متن کاملCharacterization of genetically transformed Saccharomyces cerevisiae baker's yeasts able to metabolize melibiose.
Three transformant (Mel+) Saccharomyces cerevisiae baker's yeast strains, CT-Mel, VS-Mel, and DADI-Mel, have been characterized. The strains, which originally lacked alpha-galactosidase activity (Mel-), had been transformed with a DNA fragment which possessed an ILV1-SMR1 allele of the ILV2 gene and a MEL1 gene. The three transformed strains showed growth rates similar to those of the untransfo...
متن کاملMulticenter evaluation of a broth macrodilution antifungal susceptibility test for yeasts.
Thirteen laboratories collaborated to optimize interlaboratory agreement of results of a broth macrodilution procedure for testing three classes of antifungal drugs against pathogenic yeasts. The activities of amphotericin B, flucytosine, and ketoconazole were tested against 100 coded isolates of Candida albicans, Candida tropicalis, Candida parapsilosis, Candida lusitaniae, Torulopsis (Candida...
متن کاملRapid method for testing raffinose fermentation by yeasts.
The alcoholic fermentation of raffinose by yeasts has considerable taxonomic importance. Certain species do not ferment this trisaccharide at all; others ferment only the fructose part; whereas others ferment both parts (fructose and melibiose). All or some strains of a few species ferment melibiose incompletely. Most older methods for testing raffinose fermentation are based on quantitative de...
متن کاملEffects of incubation temperature, inoculum size, and medium on agreement of macro- and microdilution broth susceptibility test results for yeasts.
We examined the effects of temperature and inoculum on the agreement of macro- and microdilution broth MICs of five antifungal agents against six isolates of Candida species or Torulopsis glabrata. Incubation temperature affected results with amphotericin B, flucytosine, fluconazole, and SCH 39304, producing better agreement at 35 degrees C than at 37 degrees C. Agreement between methods was be...
