Rapid identification of Enterobacteriaceae by using noncommercial micro-tests in conjunction with API 20E profile data.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A total of 371 (97%) of 382 strains of Enterobacteriaceae representing 26 species were identified cheaply, accurately, and rapidly by using a test system based upon standard 96-well microdilution plates and the API 20E profile data.

Four hour identification of Enterobacteriaceae with the API Rapid 20E and Micro-ID systems.
One hundred strains of Enterobacteriaceae were examined in parallel with the API Rapid 20E and Micro-ID commercial four hour identification systems. With the API Rapid 20E system 78% of the strains were correctly identified, 15% were not identified, and 7% were misidentified. The respective figures with the Micro-ID system were 74%, 11%, and 15%.
متن کاملRapid identification of Enterobacteriaceae with the micro-ID system versus API 20E and conventional media.
The Micro-ID system for rapid (4 h) identification of Enterobacteriaceae was evaluated by testing 433 enteric bacilli and 9 other gram-negative bacilli. Each isolate was identified with conventional tubed media and was also tested in the Micro-ID and API 20E systems. The overall accuracy of both systems was 97%. Micro-ID tests for the Voges-Proskauer reaction, indole and H2S production, and orn...
متن کاملIdentification of Enterobacteriaceae by the API 20E system.
Since the introduction of the API 20E kit a number of identification schemes have been developed by the manufacturer for use with the kit. We evaluated the success of these various schemes in identifying 206 strains belonging to 34 taxa of the family Enterobacteriaceae. Many of the strains were atypical and only 94% could be identified by our own system of 50 conventional tests and a computer p...
متن کاملComparison of Micro-ID and API 20E systems for identification of Enterobacteriaceae.
The Micro-ID 4-h identification system for Enterobacteriaceae was compared to the API 20E overnight method, using 230 fresh clinical isolates and 74 stock cultures. Agreement was 97.8% for the clinical isolates and 93.2% for the stock cultures. Eighty-seven percent of primary culture plates containing gram-negative rods yielded sufficient growth to perform the 4-h Micro-ID identification on the...
متن کاملTime-motion and cost comparison study of micro-ID, API 20E, and conventional biochemical testing in identification of Enterobacteriaceae.
A total of 730 Enterobacteriaceae strains isolated from 567 cultures were evaluated by a rapid kit method (Micro-ID; General Diagnostics, Morris Plains, N.J.; 4 h), an overnight incubation kit method (API 20E; Analytab Products, Plainview, N.Y.), and conventional biochemical test methodology (mostly overnight incubation and some rapid methods) to compare the amount of laboratory effort required...
