The analytical profile index (API) was invented in the 1970s in the United States by Pierre Janin of Analytab Products Inc. [2] The API test system is currently manufactured by bioMérieux. [3] The API range introduced a standardized and miniaturized version of existing techniques, which were considered complicated to perform and difficult to read.
When P. vulgaris is tested using the API 20E identification system [1] it produces positive results for sulfur reduction, urease production, tryptophan deaminase production, indole production, sometimes positive gelatinase activity, and saccharose fermentation, and negative results for the remainder of the tests on the testing strip.
Bergey's Manual Trust was established in 1936 to sustain the publication of Bergey's Manual of Determinative Bacteriology and supplementary reference works. The Trust also recognizes individuals who have made outstanding contributions to bacterial taxonomy by presentation of the Bergey Award and Bergey Medal, jointly supported by funds from the Trust and from Springer, the publishers of the ...
Eosin methylene blue (EMB, also known as "Levine's formulation") is a selective and differential media used for the identification of Gram-negative bacteria, [1] specifically the Enterobacteriaceae. EMB inhibits the growth of most Gram-positive bacteria. EMB is often used to confirm the presence of coliforms in a sample.
Diagnostic microbiology is the study of microbial identification. Since the discovery of the germ theory of disease , scientists have been finding ways to harvest specific organisms. Using methods such as differential media or genome sequencing , physicians and scientists can observe novel functions in organisms for more effective and accurate ...
metal historically used as an anti-microbial. High fructose corn syrup samples were collected from three different manufacturers and analyzed for total mercury. The samples were found to contain levels of mercury ranging from below a detection limit of 0.005 to 0.570 micrograms mercury per gram of high fructose corn syrup. Average daily
Enterobacter cloacae is a member of the normal gut flora of many humans and is not usually a primary pathogen. [9] Some strains have been associated with urinary tract and respiratory tract infections in immunocompromised individuals.
