摘要: A modified oxidase reagent, 1% tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine in dimethyl sulfoxide, proved superior to the routinely used aqueous dihydrochloride detecting weakly oxidase-positive gram-negative bacteria after 24 h of growth on agar media (40 40 positive versus 22 positive). The bacterial inoculum was obtained with a cotton-tipped swab instead loop or wooden applicator, and reaction required less than 15 s.
