This cooperative study between a large clinical laboratory and a reference laboratory evaluated the performance of the expanded r/b system for identifying Enterobacteriaceae. The 2,200 cultures isolated in the normal hospital routine presented no problem of identification to the r/b system. About 250 "atypical" cultures which were exchanged between the collaborating laboratories were also identified accurately. The expanded r/b system was found to perform as well as most biochemical-physiological identification systems, and when used appropriately was highly satisfactory as a system for identification of Enterobacteriaceae.
一家大型临床实验室与一家参考实验室开展的这项合作研究,评估了扩展的r/b系统对肠杆菌科细菌的鉴定性能。在医院常规操作中分离出的2200份培养物,r/b系统对其鉴定没有问题。合作实验室之间交换的约250份“非典型”培养物也得到了准确鉴定。结果发现,扩展的r/b系统与大多数生化生理鉴定系统表现相当,并且在合理使用时,作为一种肠杆菌科细菌鉴定系统非常令人满意。
