Rapid and reliable identification of Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates by pneumolysin-mediated agglutination.

M D Cima-Cabal1, F Vázquez, J R de los Toyos, F J Méndez.   

Abstract

A pneumolysin-based agglutination test which allows an easy, rapid, cost-effective, and accurate (100% specific and 95% sensitive) discrimination between pneumococci and other related human and animal pathogenic bacterial strains has been assayed.
