Evaluation of the DMS Rapid E system for identification of clinical isolates of the family Enterobacteriaceae

M W Keville et al. J Clin Microbiol. 1984 Nov.

Abstract

A total of 387 unique clinical isolates of the family Enterobacteriaceae were examined with the new DMS Rapid E gram-negative identification system (DMS Laboratories, Inc., Flemington, N.J.) and the API 20E procedure (Analytab Products, Plainview, N.Y.). Altogether, 376 strains (97.2%) were correctly identified to species level within 4 h with the DMS Rapid E system; 366 strains (94.6%) were correctly identified with the API 20E after overnight incubation.
