Accuracies of Leuconostoc phenotypic identification: a comparison of API systems and conventional phenotypic assays
BACKGROUND: Commercial diagnostics are commonly used to identify gram-positive bacteria. Errors have been reported mostly at the species level. We have found certain phenotypic criteria used in API systems which significantly misidentify Leuconostoc, an emerging human pathogen, at the genus level. W...
