ABSTRACT:
A method for identification of a microorganism includes combining in a suitable fluid the microorganism and a latex containing a particle coated with about 1 to 150 .mu.g per ml of latex of a lectin specific for the microorganism. Binding of the microorganism and lectin causes agglutination which is detected. The microorganism is identified by the agglutination as that organism which is specific for the lectin. The invention includes a reagent which may be included with other materials in a kit of materials useful for performing the method of the invention.
