ABSTRACT:
A method for identifying specific bacterial species in derived samples is based on 26 tests for the presence of constitutive enzymes, which, with the exception of two tests which require about two and a half hours, can be done relatively quickly, and without need for bacterial growth. By quantifying the amount of enzyme identified by the substrate test, a highly reliable identification of bacterial species present can be made. A kit, comprising substrates specific to the enzymes to be tested for, is provided for carrying out the test.
