title: Improved thin-layer technique for detection of arginine dihydrolase among the Pseudomonas species.
abstract: The detection of arginine dihydrolase among Pseudomonas spp. by thin-layer chromatography is described. The method is based on the procedure of Williams and co-workers (1971) but was improved in sensitivity by selection of a better solvent system.
