Packaged commercial bacterial identification systems.
The authors attempt to provide a useful and current guide for clinical microbiologists who are seeking a review of the available packaged commercial systems for bacterial identification. Each system is outlined according to test principle, laboratory procedures, turn-around time, and limitations. Selected peer evaluations and references for many of the systems are also cited.
