The API ZYM enzyme testing system as an aid to the rapid identification of Penicillium isolates
Microbiol Sci.
1984 Dec.
Abstract
The API ZYM strip is a commercially available, rapid, enzyme testing system. It has been demonstrated to be a useful method in certain areas of bacterial identification. Its suitability for the identification of filamentous fungi was evaluated, with encouraging results being obtained.
