Clostridium septicum
RapID ANA
The definitive identification of
C. septicum
can be made using a profile of biochemical reactions, as is contained in the RapID ANA strip seen in the image. The upper set of tubules are reactions before addition of reagents; the bottom set of reactions after reagents are added.
The upper set of letter codes is used to read the reactions before addition of reagents; the lower set of labels indicate the tests to read following addition of reagents.
Of all the reactions included, only ONPG and NAG in the upper set are positive.
The biotype number derived from this profile of reactions, 014000 codes for
Clostridium septicum
, thus confirming the identification.
