A rapid carbohydrate utilization test for the identification of N. gonorrhoeae was investigated, with reference to its use in a routine diagnostic laboratory. The rapid test was shown to give accurate results in agreement with those of a conventional serum-free sugar medium. Because of the shorter time taken for the confirmation of an isolate, and several other advantages, it is proposed that the rapid test is an extremely useful alternative to conventional sugar tests. Immunofluorescence was also used to identify isolates of N. gonorrhoeae and the rapid carbohydrate utilization test was found to assist in differentiating between N. gonorrhoeae and N. meningitidis when equivocal or negative immunofluorescence results were obtained.
针对一种用于鉴定淋病奈瑟菌的快速碳水化合物利用试验在常规诊断实验室中的应用进行了研究。结果表明,该快速试验能给出与传统无血清糖培养基试验相符的准确结果。由于确认分离株所需时间较短以及其他几个优点,建议该快速试验是传统糖试验的一种极其有用的替代方法。免疫荧光也用于鉴定淋病奈瑟菌分离株,并且当获得模糊或阴性免疫荧光结果时,发现快速碳水化合物利用试验有助于区分淋病奈瑟菌和脑膜炎奈瑟菌。
