The Rapid Strep system (Analytab Products, Plainview, NY) was used to identify 199 gram-positive, catalase-negative cocci isolated from bovine intramammary infections. The system accurately identified 88.4% of isolates. The system identified 100% of 46 Streptococcus agalactiae, 100% of 48 Streptococcus dysgalactiae, 54.5% of 11 Streptococcus equinus, and 96.2% of 53 Streptococcus uberis isolates. Enterococcus spp. were identified correctly 83.3% of the time. One of 4 Streptococcus saccharolyticus strains was identified as Streptococcus bovis, the previous classification for this organism, and 8 Streptococcus equi ssp. equi strains were misidentified as Streptococcus dysgalactiae. The Rapid Strep system was determined to be an acceptable alternative to conventional methods for identification of gram-positive, catalase-negative cocci isolated from bovine intramammary infections.
采用快速链球菌检测系统(Analytab Products公司,纽约州普莱恩维尤)对从牛乳房内感染分离出的199株革兰氏阳性、过氧化氢酶阴性球菌进行鉴定。该系统准确鉴定出了88.4%的分离株。该系统鉴定出46株无乳链球菌中的100%、48株停乳链球菌中的100%、11株马肠链球菌中的54.5%以及53株乳房链球菌中的96.2%。肠球菌属的鉴定正确率为83.3%。4株解糖链球菌中的1株被鉴定为牛链球菌(该菌之前的分类名称),8株马链球菌兽疫亚种菌株被误鉴定为停乳链球菌。快速链球菌检测系统被确定为从牛乳房内感染分离出的革兰氏阳性、过氧化氢酶阴性球菌鉴定的传统方法的可接受替代方法。
