2022年8月10日 · API (Analytical Profile Index) 20E is a biochemical panel for identification and differentiation of members of the family Enterobacteriaceae. It is hence a well-established method for manual microorganism identification to the species level.

2024年5月31日 · API (Analytical Profile Index) 20E is a biochemical panel from bioMerieux, Inc. for identifying and differentiating members of the family Enterobacteriaceae. The plastic strip holds twenty mini-test chambers containing dehydrated media having chemically defined compositions for each test.

2024年5月12日 · The APT (Analytical Profile Index) test for bacteria, specifically the API 20E Test kit, is a method used to identify and differentiate bacteria belonging to the Enterobacteriaceae family based on their biochemical characteristics.

2023年9月19日 · What is an API 20E test? The API (Analytical Profile Index) 20E Test is a well-known and commonly used biochemical test for identifying and differentiating bacteria from the Enterobacteriaceae family. It is a standardized biochemical assay designed for species identification of microorganisms.

API strips give accurate identifications based on extensive databases and are standardized, easy-to-use test systems. The kits include strips that contain up to 20 miniature biochemical tests. All are quick, safe and easy to perform.

The API 20E/NE system is a widely used biochemical test system designed for the rapid identification of Gram-negative bacteria. It specifically targets two groups: Enterobacteriaceae (API 20E) and non-Enterobacteriaceae (API 20NE).

API - 20E TEST STRIP. This API-20E test strip (from bioMerieux, Inc.) is used to identify the enteric gram negative rods (although API makes a variety of other test strips for yeast, Staph, anaerobes, etc.) 20 separate test compartments are on the strip, all dehydrated. A bacterial suspension is used to rehydrate each of the wells.

API test strip (analytical profile index) is a miniaturized and standardized gallery of biochemical tests, usable with complete identification databases, the best known of which is the api 20E (20 characters for Enterobacteriaceae).

The API 20E system facilitates the 24-hour identification of Enterobacteriaceae as well as 24 or 48-hour identification of other Gram negative bacteria. The API 20E strip consists of microtubes containing dehydrated substrates for the demonstration of enzymatic activity and carbohydrate (CHO) fermentation.

2023年1月13日 · API Test for bacteria (API 20E Test kit) uses to identify and differentiate bacteria of the family Enterobacteriaceae on the basis of biochemical tests. The API range provides a standardized, miniaturized version of existing identification techniques.
