  • Title: Simple disk-plate method for the biochemical confirmation of pathogenic Neisseria.
    Author: Valu JA.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 1976 Feb; 3(2):172-4. PubMed ID: 815270.
    Abstract:
    The carbohydrate fermentation test in cystine trypticase agar (BBL)-tubed medium was compared with a simple method using commercially available carbohydrate impregnated disks on culture inoculated Thayer-Martin medium with and without (vancomycin, colistimethate, and nystatin) inhibitors. There was 100% agreement between the two methods when a limited sample of clinical isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Nesseria meningitidis were tested.
