[Application of pyrazinamidase activity for the identification of Aeromonas species].
70 Aeromonas strains isolated from patients with acute diarrheal disease were classified into species by using the CAMP factor test and the Pyrazinamidase activity. It is stressed the high percent of coincidence between both tests, which are easy to make at the clinical microbiology laboratories.
