Abstract:
The authors have used two different methods for the identification of 45 strains of stric anaerobic gram negative rods: a study of biochemical characters by the API 20 anaerobic kit, and system proposed by SUTTER and FINEGOLD (susceptibility to discs loaded with antibiotics associated with some simple biochemical characters). A good correlation has been observed between those two techniques. However, a precise diagnostic can be given only by a whole study of biochemical characters, as proposed by the system API 20 Anaerobic.
