Clinical laboratory evaluation of a reverse CAMP test for presumptive identification of Clostridium perfringens.

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Ninety-six percent of Clostridium perfringens isolates from clinical specimens were reverse CAMP test positive, whereas several other Clostridium species tested were reverse CAMP test negative. C. perfringens was detected by direct inoculation of clinical specimens to reverse CAMP plates, and the reverse CAMP procedure provided reliable presumptive identification of this organism.
