Rapid fermentation tests of carbohydrates were performed on 84 strains of anaerobic bacteria, and the result is compared with a commercially available micromultitest, API. An overall correlation of 87% was achieved between the two systems. The rapid fermentation test is easy to perform, since it is done aerobically, and easy to read. This study shows that RFT is useful in routine diagnosis of anaerobic bacteria, if it is used in combination with other relevant biochemical tests, morphologic examination, and gas chromatography.
对84株厌氧菌进行了碳水化合物快速发酵试验,并将结果与市售的微量多项试验(API)进行了比较。两个系统之间的总体相关性达到了87%。快速发酵试验操作简便,因为它是在有氧条件下进行的,而且易于判读。本研究表明,如果将快速发酵试验与其他相关生化试验、形态学检查和气相色谱法结合使用,它在厌氧菌的常规诊断中是有用的。
