[The methylene-blue-reduction-test (MR-test) and the micro-TTC-test for the determination of substances as sole source of carbon in the taxonomy of Pseudomonas species (author's transl)].
Two methods are described for the determination of substances as sole source of carbon for taxonomic tools: the Methylene-Blue-Reduction-Test and the Micro-TTC-Test. Both methods are giving results superior to the technique introduced by STANIER and co-workers and used hitherto in the taxonomic classification of Pseudomonas species. The evaluation of the comparative test results is based on the criterion that a substance is useful for taxonomic purpose provided that at least 90 per cent of the strains of a species are giving homogeneous results. - The MR-Test is superior to the Micro-TTC-Test concerning the reproducibility of the results. The Micro-TTC-Test is useful as a screening technique in the routine work and the primary investigation of numerous strains.
