Abstract:
A 4-h biochemical identification system (Micro-ID) and a rapid confirmation 24-h biochemical and serological procedure (RC) involving the Minitek system were compared for accuracy of Salmonella identification. Of 144 known Salmonella stock cultures, RC correctly classified all, and Micro-ID correctly classified 141. Both systems correctly classified all the Salmonella isolates obtained from four artificially inoculated broiler carcasses. When 113 suspect- Salmonella isolates from naturally contaminated samples were examined, RC correctly classified all, and Micro-ID correctly classified all except one.

It would be easy to compare two samples using a significance alpha level of 0.05. In other words, there is only one sample pair to be compared. However, it would be difficult to identify a significantly different sample if the number...
