Many isolates of glucose-nonfermenting gram-negative bacilli (NFB) cultured from clinical veterinary specimens are not identified because of the large number of identification tests required. We evaluated two commercial identification systems to determine if they could accurately identify NFB isolated from animals. Of 182 strains of NFB, the MicroScan Urinary Combo Panel (MicroScan, Inc., Campbell, Calif.) correctly identified 72%, and the API 20E system (Analytab Products, Plainview, N.Y.) correctly identified 74%. Of the 118 strains of the three most common species of NFB isolated from animals, the MicroScan Urinary Combo Panel identified 86% correctly, and the API 20E system identified 92% correctly. The use of either of these systems could improve the accuracy of identification of NFB from clinical veterinary materials.
从临床兽医学标本中培养出的许多葡萄糖非发酵革兰氏阴性杆菌（NFB）分离株，由于需要进行大量的鉴定试验而未得到鉴定。我们评估了两种商业鉴定系统，以确定它们是否能准确鉴定从动物身上分离出的NFB。在182株NFB菌株中，MicroScan尿液组合板（MicroScan公司，加利福尼亚州坎贝尔）正确鉴定出72%，API 20E系统（Analytab Products公司，纽约州普莱恩维尤）正确鉴定出74%。在从动物身上分离出的三种最常见的NFB菌株的118株中，MicroScan尿液组合板正确鉴定出86%，API 20E系统正确鉴定出92%。使用这两种系统中的任何一种都可以提高从临床兽医学材料中鉴定NFB的准确性。
