Abstract
A system of presumptive identification of some yeasts that uses the Autobac 1 (Pfizer Inc.) instrument to detect C assimilation was tested on 218 strains of Candida and Torulopsis. This system compared favorably with a conventional system of yeast identification and also with the Uni-Yeast-Tek (Corning Medical) and API (Analytab Products Inc.) methods.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
