Evaluation of two test-kits--API and Oxi Ferm tube--for identification of oxidative-fermentative Gram-negative rods. 1977

C E Nord, and B Wretlind, and A Dahlbäck

Two test-kits--API and Oxi Ferm tube--have been compared for accuracy in individual tests and for identification on the genus or species level with conventional biochemical tests on 154 oxidative-fermentative gram-negative rods. The two test systems were found to be reliable and permit identification of the clinically most significant oxidative-fermentative strains.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D006088 Gram-Negative Aerobic Bacteria A large group of aerobic bacteria which show up as pink (negative) when treated by the gram-staining method. This is because the cell walls of gram-negative bacteria are low in peptidoglycan and thus have low affinity for violet stain and high affinity for the pink dye safranine. Achromatiaceae,Achromatium,Achromobacteriaceae,Gram Negative Aerobic Bacteria
D006089 Gram-Negative Anaerobic Bacteria A large group of anaerobic bacteria which show up as pink (negative) when treated by the Gram-staining method. Gram Negative Anaerobic Bacteria
D001431 Bacteriological Techniques Techniques used in studying bacteria.
