[The identification of Aeromonas species isolated in Cuba].

100 Aeromonas strains, isolated from children under 5 years with acute diarrheal diseases from various health centers of the country, were studied from January to July, 1990. Using the Janda-modified Popoff's and Veron's model, 63% of the strains were identified in species through primary tests, and 100% of the other 37% were identified in Aeromonas sobria, Aeromonas hydrophila, and Aeromonas caviae, using also supplementary tests.
