Improved Identification of Mycobacteria by Using the Microbial Identification System in Combination with Additional Trimethylsulfonium Hydroxide Pyrolysis

1 Sept 1998

Abstract excerpt

The MIDI automated Microbial Identification System (MIS) uses gas chromatography (GC) analysis of whole-cell fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) between 9 and 20 carbons in length to characterize a wide range of bacterial genera and species, including mycobacteria. Mycolic acid cleavage products (MACPs) with chain lengths of C22 to C26 are not released by MIDI sample preparation of mycobacteria. Therefore, the MIS...
