Motile and glucose-negative nonfermentative bacilli are difficult to identify by commonly used procedures. We found eight features (reduction of nitrate and nitrite, acidification of fructose, and alkalinization of acetamide, arginine, histidine, saccharate, and urea) that identified 83% of 143 strains. These, along with additional biochemical tests, effected identification of 93% of the strains. Hence, only a minority of these strains required examination by microscopy (for type of flagellation and presence of inclusion bodies) for complete identification.
运动性且葡萄糖阴性的非发酵杆菌很难通过常用方法鉴定。我们发现了八个特征（硝酸盐和亚硝酸盐还原、果糖酸化以及乙酰胺、精氨酸、组氨酸、糖酸盐和尿素碱化），这些特征能鉴定出143株菌株中的83%。这些特征连同其他生化测试，能鉴定出93%的菌株。因此，这些菌株中只有少数需要通过显微镜检查（观察鞭毛类型和包涵体的存在）来进行完整鉴定。
