| semiquantitative catalase test as an aid in identification of oxidative and nonsaccharolytic gram-negative bacteria. | a simple and rapid semiquantitative slide catalase test useful for the identification of oxidative and nonsaccharolytic gram-negative bacteria, i.e., "nonfermenters," is described. using the interpretative criterion of time of appearance of oxygen bubbles in 3% hydrogen peroxide, three categories of nonfermenters were established. the rapid catalase producers included achromobacter xylosoxidans and achromobacter species; acinetobacter anitratus and acinetobacter lwoffii; bordetella bronchiseptic ... | 1979 | 393719 |
| pneumonia caused by a newly recognized pseudomonad in a child with chronic granulomatous disease. | a pseudomonad was isolated from the pleural fluid and pulmonary decortication tissue of a 5-year-old child with chronic granulomatous disease. although the isolate was phenotypically similar to pseudomonas cepacia, its biochemical profile was more similar to that of pseudomonas pickettii biovar 2. its slow growth rate, ability to hydrolyze urea rapidly, and lateral and polar flagellar pattern were suggestive of oligella ureolytica (formerly cdc group ive). the cellular fatty acid composition was ... | 1990 | 2380349 |

| evaluation of pyrrolidonyl arylamidase for the identification of nonfermenting gram-negative rods. | to evaluate the activity of pyrrolidonyl arylamidase (pyr) for the differentiation and identification of nonfermenting gram negative rods (nfgnr), 293 isolates were tested. a 24 h culture of each test organism was prepared. from this a 108-109 cfu/ml suspension was added to 0.25 ml of sterile physiologic solution. a pyr disk was then added and the test was incubated for 30 minutes at 35-37 degrees c, at environmental atmosphere. reading was done by adding 1 drop of cinnamaldehyde reagent. strain ... | 2007 | 16822636 |
| an antimicrobial investigation of plants used traditionally in southern africa to treat sexually transmitted infections. | eighteen plants were assessed for antimicrobial activity against pathogens associated with prevalent urogenital/sexually transmitted infections. plant selection was based on information obtained from the ethnobotanical literature. | 2010 | 20561928 |
