Rapid method for determining serum bactericidal activity.
To screen large numbers of sera, a method was devised which utilizes the Steers-Foltz replicator which is usually used to determine minimal inhibitory concentration for antibiotics. Each of the wells (9 by 15 mm) of the replicator is filled with 0.06 ml of serum, 0.02 ml of a 10(5) suspension of organisms, and 0.02 ml of diluent (tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane-hydrochloride buffer, pH 8.4). Th...
متن کاملRapid method for determining ultrafiltrable calcium in serum.
Methods for determining ultrafiltrable calcium in serum (UFCa) are comprehensive and time-consuming because pH must be strictly controlled, either by anaerobic technique throughout the process or by saturating the sera with C02-02 mixtures. Farese et al. (1) reported a simple method for separating diffusible calcium in serum by centrifugation through high-flux ultrafiltration membranes. Anaerob...
متن کاملA rapid method for determining decarboxylase and dihydrolase activity.
A total of 764 fresh clinical isolates were used to test a rapid method for determining lysine, arginine, and ornithine decarboxylase activity as well as arginine dihydrolase activity. The conventional Møller decarboxylase broth was tested in parallel with the rapid method on 234 Enterobacteriaceae and 140 non-fermentative Gram-negative rods. The 0.3% agar method was tested in parallel on 245 E...

متن کاملAn automated, saccharogenic method for determining serum amylase activity.
An automated adaptation of the Somogyl saccharogenic determination of serum amylase is described in which conventional AutoAnalyzer modules are used. Adequate sensitivity with short incubation is achieved by incorporating glucose oxidase and catalase in the substrate to destroy serum glucose during incubation. Maltose and other dialyzable oligosaccharides are measured with the alkaline copper-n...
