  • Title: [Identification of the enterobacteria isolated from patients by using the Enterotube test system].
    Author: Men'shikov DD, Ianisker GIa.
    Journal: Zh Mikrobiol Epidemiol Immunobiol; 1979 Feb; (2):73-7. PubMed ID: 369245.
    Abstract:
    The Enterotube test system intended for the accelerated identification of enterobacteria was used to study 319 strains isolated from patients with suppurative complications after surgical operations and traumatic lesions. The test system was found to allow a reliable identification of Enterobacteriaceae having characteristic biochemical properties. It was also found that the kit intended for 10 tests could prove insufficient for the identification of atypical bacteria. The Enterotube test system made it possible to differentiate 95% of enterobacterial strains; in the identification of bacteria by their genus and species and results obtained with the use of the Enterotube test system and common biochemical methods were found to be identical (in 96.4% of tests).
