Streptococci from primary isolation plates grouped by reverse passive haemagglutination.
Reverse passive haemagglutination, a novel microtitre based assay, was compared with the Streptex (Wellcome UK) latex slide agglutination kit for streptococcal grouping in a diagnostic microbiology laboratory. Three hundred and fifty two extracts from 349 consecutive primary isolation plates were assayed by both methods. Reverse passive haemagglutination gave identical grouping results for 98.0...
متن کاملComparison of Meritec-Strep with Streptex for direct colony grouping of beta-hemolytic streptococci from primary isolation and subculture plates.
Meritec-Strep (Meridian Diagnostics, Inc., Cincinnati, Ohio) a coagglutination method, was compared with Streptex (Wellcome Diagnostics, Research Triangle Park, N.C.), a latex agglutination method, for the identification of beta-hemolytic streptococcal groups A, B, C, F, and G by the direct colony method. A total of 124 beta-hemolytic streptococcal isolates were tested, which included 77 from g...
متن کاملDirect-plate serological grouping of beta-hemolytic streptococci from primary isolation plates with the Phadebact streptococcus test.
The grouping of beta-hemolytic streptococcal isolates by a new direct-plate procedure employing Phadebact Streptococcus Test reagents was compared with the results obtained with the 4- and 24-h Phadebact grouping procedure and with the Lancefield grouping obtained with a capillary precipitin test. The new procedure employed a modification of the Phadebact procedure that permitted the grouping o...
متن کاملLysis of grouped and ungrouped streptococci by lysozyme.
Thirty strains of streptococci were tested for lysis with lysozyme, and 29 of these could be lysed by the following method: (i) suspension of the cells to a Klett reading of 200 units (no. 42 filter) in 0.01 m tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane buffer, pH 8.2, after washing twice with the buffer; (ii) addition of lysozyme to a final concentration of 250 mug/ml with incubation for 60 min at 37 C; (...
متن کاملReverse passive haemagglutination test for the rapid identification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae and detection of penicillinase production.
In a comparison of the reverse passive haemagglutination test (RPHA) with the direct immunofluorescent and rapid carbohydrate utilisation tests for the identification of Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolated from clinical specimens, 315 isolates of oxidase-positive Gram-negative diplococci were tested as pure 24-hour-old subcultures and samples from 108 similar organisms were taken directly from prima...
