[Comparison of Micro-ID, API 20 E and a conventional technique for the identification of Enterobacteriaceae]. 1980

T Gregersen, and B Persson, and M M Jensen

A new system, Micro-ID, for the identification of Enterobacteriaceae is described. 100 strains of Enterobacteriaceae (Table I) are identified by Micro-ID and the identifications are compared with the identifications performed by conventional techniques and by the API 20 E system. There is a total agreement between Micro-ID and conventional techniques on 96.5% and between API 20 E and conventional techniques on 90% (Tables II and III). The differences in the reactions between the systems are discussed and explained. It is concluded, that the Micro-ID and the API 20 E both are very suitable for the identification of Enterobacteriaceae.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D004755 Enterobacteriaceae A family of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria that do not form endospores. Its organisms are distributed worldwide with some being saprophytes and others being plant and animal parasites. Many species are of considerable economic importance due to their pathogenic effects on agriculture and livestock. Coliform Bacilli,Enterobacteria,Ewingella,Leclercia,Paracolobactrum,Sodalis
