The tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine oxidase reaction commonly used in the Kovacs oxidase test was quantitatively estimated for various Neisseria species employing standardized resting cell suspensions. This genus of microorganisms exhibited very high tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine oxidase rates comparable to that of Azotobacter and Pseudomonas, and this reaction was found to be a valid measurement for the respiratory capability possessed by this group of organisms.
采用标准化的静息细胞悬液,对科瓦茨氧化酶试验中常用的四甲基对苯二胺氧化酶反应进行了多种奈瑟菌属菌种的定量评估。这类微生物表现出与固氮菌属和假单胞菌属相当的非常高的四甲基对苯二胺氧化酶活性,并且发现该反应是对这组生物体呼吸能力的有效测量。
