The cellular fatty acid composition of a group of gram-negative nonfermentative organisms designated group IVe was studied by gas-liquid chromatography. Strains of this group are isolated most frequently from urine and most closely resemble the Alcaligenes in conventional biochemical tests. On the basis of cellular fatty acids, however, we found these organisms to be strikingly different from Alcaligenes and other gram-negative species with similar phenotypic characteristics. The gas-liquid chromatography procedure offers an additional diagnostic test for rapid identification of unclassified bacteria like group IVe.
采用气液色谱法研究了一组被指定为IVe组的革兰氏阴性非发酵菌的细胞脂肪酸组成。该组菌株最常从尿液中分离出来，在传统生化试验中与产碱杆菌最为相似。然而，基于细胞脂肪酸分析，我们发现这些生物与产碱杆菌以及其他具有相似表型特征的革兰氏阴性菌显著不同。气液色谱法为快速鉴定像IVe组这样未分类的细菌提供了一种额外的诊断测试方法。
