Identification of group A streptococci by direct fluorometry.
A simple direct fluorometric method for rapid identification of group A streptococci is described. The method permits the detection of the organism in mixed cultures without the aid of a microscope and is amenable to automated processing of specimens. Experience with the indirect fluorometric method revealed that nontrypsinized cells from a 10-fold dilution of overnight broth cultures could be ...
متن کاملDetection of group A streptococci in throat swabs by direct fluorometry.
A direct fluorometric test for the rapid detection of group A streptococci from throat swabs was compared with the microscopic fluorescent-antibody test. Formalinized throat swab cultures (490) were examined by the two methods, and the results agreed on 84% of the specimens. In another comparison, 15-hr broth cultures of 103 freshly taken throat swabs were tested by both methods. Of the specime...
متن کاملRAPID IDENTIFICATION OF GROUP A STREPTOCOCCI BY PYRROLIDONYL-β-APHTHYLAMIDE HYDROLYSIS
In a clinical trial a new pyrrolidonyl-β-naphthylamide (PYR) hydrolysis test was compared with the bacitracin disk susceptibility test for accuracy in the presumptive identification of group A streptococci (GAS). Among 128 isolates of beta-hemolytic streptococci 93 group A isolates were found. The sensitivity of the PYR and bacitracin tests were similar (98.9%), but the bacitracin test had ...

متن کاملRapid identification of group B streptococci by counterimmunoelectrophoresis.
Beta-hemolytic streptococcal isolates have been examined by counterimmunoelectrophoresis (CIE) with group B antiserum to determine whether this techinque is of value in the rapid identification of group B strains. Ninety stock cultures and 100 clinical isolates of beta-hemolytic streptococci including representatives of groups A, D, C, G, and B were inoculated into Todd-Hewitt broth; after incu...
