Wat is bonte rij?
Een bonte rij is een serie buizen met verschillende voedingsmedia waar de onbekende bacterie op wordt beënt, waarna door biochemische omzettingen verschillende kleurreacties ontstaan. Elke reactie is uniek voor een bepaald micro-organisme.
Why use API® for bacterial identification?
That’s why today, API® is recognized as THE REFERENCE for identification of bacterial and fungal species. With multiple biochemical reactions in limited wells along with a wide identification database on the market, API ® makes bacterial identification reliable and accurate.
How to identify bacteria in api20e biochemical test strip?
Take the API20E Biochemical Test Strip which contains dehydrated bacterial media/bio-chemical reagents in 20 separate compartments. API20E Biochemical Test Strip is commercially available. (Bacteria will react with them and will give different colors which will help to identify bacteria to the species level).
What is API® be the first to know?
API ® Be the First to Know. The well-established method for manual microorganism identification to the species level, bioMérieux’s API identification products are test kits for identification of Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria and yeast.
How to prepare the API test?
Put some drops of water in the tray and put the API Test strip and close the tray. Mark the tray with identification number (Patient ID or Organism ID), date and your initials. Incubate the tray at 37 o C for 18 to 24 hours.
