Identification of Actinomyces (Corynebacterium) pyogenes with the API 20 Strep system.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A total of 62 strains of Actinomyces pyogenes (previously Corynebacterium pyogenes) were examined by the API 20 Strep system (API System, La Balme Les Grottes, Montalieu-Vercieu, France). The system was shown to be reliable and rapid when the tests were compared with standard identification methods. No confusion occurred with streptococcal profiles in the current API 20 Strep data base.

Alpha-mannosidase: a rapid test for identification of Arcanobacterium haemolyticum.
A 4-h alpha-mannosidase test for identification of Arcanobacterium haemolyticum strains (n = 139) and differentiation of A. haemolyticum from Actinomyces pyogenes strains (n = 30) and other gram-positive rods was evaluated. Practically all A. haemolyticum strains (138 of 139) and the Listeria monocytogenes type strain were alpha-mannosidase positive, while all A. pyogenes strains and Corynebact...

The 2.4-kb plasmid pAP1 from Arcanobacterium (Actinomyces) pyogenes had sequence similarity within the putative replication protein and double-stranded origin with the pIJ101/pJV1 family of plasmids. pJGS84, a derivative of pAP1 containing a kanamycin resistance gene, was able to replicate in Escherichia coli and Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis, as well as in A. pyogenes. Detection of single...

متن کاملIdentification of Gardnerella vaginalis with the API 20 Strep system.
A total of 137 strains of Gardnerella vaginalis were examined by the API 20 Strep system. The system was shown to be reliable when the tests were compared with standard identification methods, and very little confusion occurred with streptococcal profiles; consequently, G. vaginalis has been included in the API 20 Strep data base.
متن کاملIdentification of Trueperella pyogenes Isolated from Bovine Mastitis by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy
The present study was designed to investigate the potential of Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy to identify Trueperella (T.) pyogenes isolated from bovine clinical mastitis. FT-IR spectroscopy was applied to 57 isolates obtained from 55 cows in a period from 2009 to 2012. Prior to FT-IR spectroscopy these isolates were identified by phenotypic and genotypic properties, also inclu...
