Abstract
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.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
