Rapid fermentation confirmation of Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A rapid sugar fermentation procedure has been developed for the confirmation of Neisseria gonorrhoeae from either primary isolation media or purification media. A lightly buffered salt solution with pH indicator and sugars was heavily inoculated with presumptively positive growth. Proper fermentation patterns are obtained in 1 to 4 h with no interference from inhibited contaminants or variation in results due to differing growth requirements of gonococcal strains.

Carbohydrate fermentation plate medium for confirmation of Neisseria species.
A carbohydrate fermentation plate medium is described for rapid and reliable confirmation of Neisseria gonorrhoeae, N. meningitidis, and other Neisseria species. The medium is based on a modification of NYC (U.S. Patent 3,846,241) medium, originally designed for the isolation of pathogenic Neisseria (3). A total of 715 clinical isolates were tested for their carbohydrate fermentation reactions ...
متن کاملNeisseria confirmation by an enriched, bicarbonate-containing carbohydrate medium.
A sugar fermentation medium for the confirmation of Neisseria and related species was developed. The medium contained a commercial supplement and a hemoglobin source prepared from lysed sheep erythrocytes. Bicarbonate in the medium substituted for a CO2-supplemented atmosphere. The medium was dispensed into screw-capped tubes. This medium was compared to cystine-Trypticase agar and the modified...
متن کاملSimple disk-plate method for the biochemical confirmation of pathogenic Neisseria.
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 go...
متن کاملModification of the rapid fermentation test for Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
A modification of the rapid sugar fermentation procedure has been developed because of difficulties encountered in reproducing the reported results. Changes in the method have made the test more sensitive and reproducible.
متن کاملRapid micro-carbohydrate test for confirmation of Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
A rapid carbohydrate utilization procedure for the confirmation of Neisseria gonorrhoeae and identification of other Neisseria species has been developed. This method utilizes both preformed enzymes, introduced in a heavy inoculum, and enzymes formed by the microorganisms as a result of growth in a small volume of super-enriched medium. Expected carbohydrate reactions were produced by 383 clini...
