Same day identification of gram-negative rods with the Quantum II Microbiology System.
The Quantum II Microbiology System was challenged with 479 strains of Enterobacteriaceae and 155 strains of nonfermenters (contained in the data base) and Aeromonas/Plesiomonas. The percentages of strains correctly diagnosed within 5h (i.e., with out additional tests) at greater than or equal to 80% probability were 78% and at greater than or equal to 50% probability, 84.7%.
