Presumptive identification of nocardias in a clinical laboratory.

C H Collins1, M D Yates, A H Uttley.   

Abstract

One hundred and thirty-six cultures of aerobic streptomycetes were examined by simple cultural and microscopical methods. Nocardia spp. were recognized by their resistance to lysozyme and identified to the three important species by casein, xanthine and tyrosine hydrolysis tests.
