Rapid methods for the detection of carbohydrate fermentation.

چکیده
This report deals with a comparative study of typical methods for determining the fermentative abilities of microorganisms. The aim of the first studies was to select the best method for use with members of the Enterobacteriaceae and other easily cultivable species, using as criteria, rapidity, dependability, and simplicity. Later studies have involved adapting the method to some less easily cultivable organisms.

Digestion kinetics of carbohydrate fractions of citrus by-products
The present experiment was carried out to determine the digestion kinetics of carbohydrate fractions of citrus by-products. Grapefruit pulp (GP), lemon pulp (LE), lime pulp (LI) and orange pulp (OP) were the test feed. Digestion kinetic of whole citrus by-products and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) fraction and acid detergent fiber (ADF) fractions of citrus by-products were measured using the <e...
متن کاملEvaluation of rapid carbohydrate degradation tests for identification of pathogenic Neisseria.
A total of 156 clinical isolates were tested by the modified rapid fermentation test, the BACTEC Neisseria differentiation kit, and the cystine-Trypticase agar method. The modified rapid fermentation test and BACTEC methods accurately identified at least 95% of 101 strains of N. gonorrhoeae tested and at least 91% of 45 strains of N. meningitidis tested within 4 h. Overall, the cystine-Tryptica...
متن کاملCarbohydrate 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 کاملAccuracy of a rapid carbohydrate oxidation microtube method for identification of nonfermentative gram-negative bacilli.
A rapid carbohydrate oxidation microtube system (Carr Microbiologicals, Wichita, Kans.), designed for detecting the saccharolytic activity of gram-negative, nonfermenting bacilli, was evaluated and compared with the conventional oxidation-fermentation method. The oxidation of glucose, maltose, lactose, and xylose was tested with 430 strains of Pseudomonas, Acinetobacter, Achromobacter, Alcalige...
