An Approach to the Taxonomy of Gram-positive Anaerobic Cocci 1. Isolation and Identification
Timothy J. Coleman, Jaber S. Orwa, Mutwakil G. Ahmed (Sebha University, 2008)The aim of this study was to collect and identify fresh isolates of Gram-positive anaerobic cocci (GPAC) from clinical materials as a basis for the study of taxonomy of GPAC. A total of 116 strains of GPAC, isolated from ... -
An Approach to the Taxonomy of Gram-positive Anaerobic Cocci. 2. Carbohydrate Fermentation
Timothy J. Coleman, Jaber S. Orwa, Mutwakil G. Ahmed (Sebha University, 2008)An attempt was made to classify gram-positive anaerobic cocci (GPAC) on the basis of their production of fatty acids from the fermentation of mannose, galactose and rhamnose by the use of gas liquid chromatography (GLC). ... -
An Approach to the Taxonomy of Gram-positive Anaerobic Cocci. 3. Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing
Timothy J. Coleman, Jaber S. Orwa, Mutwakil G. Ahmed (Sebha University, 2008)Antibiotics and dye susceptibility tests have been used by several investigators as selective agents or as presumptive procedures for the identification of anaerobes. In this study a total of 76 strains of Gram-positive ... -
An Approach to the Taxonomy of Gram-positive Anaerobic Cocci. 4. The Cell Wall Composition
Timothy J. Coleman, Jaber S. Orwa, Mutwakil G. Ahmed (Sebha University, 2008)The classification of Gram-positive anaerobic cocci (GPAC) has always been very unsatisfactory. Attempts to clarify the taxonomy of GPAC have involved several methods including the analysis of the composition of bacterial ... -
An Approach to the Taxonomy of Gram-positive Anaerobic Cocci. 5. The Metabolism of Amino Acid
Timothy J. Coleman, Jaber S. Orwa, Mutwakil G. Ahmed (Sebha University, 2009)This study showed that the metabolism of amino acids was useful in differentiating between the species of Gram-positive anaerobic cocci (GPAC). The best results were obtained from those whose taxonomic positions or biochemical ... -
