Differentiation of Bacteroides fragilis species by gas chromatographic detection of phenylacetic acid.
AUTOR(ES)
van Assche, P F
RESUMO
Of 382 strains tested, 261 strains of the species Bacteroides fragilis, B. thetaiotaomicron, B. ovatus, and B. distasonis produced phenylacetic acid; the remaining strains, belonging exclusively to the species B. vulgatus, failed to do so. This differentiation characteristic may be useful in routine clinical bacteriology.
