Api 50 chl test kit
The API 50 CHL test kits are a standardized identification system for the biochemical characterization of microorganisms. The kits provide a standardized and reproducible method for the identification of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, based on the observation of bacterial growth and carbohydrate fermentation in a series of miniaturized biochemical tests.

Identification of Metal-Resistant Lactic Acid Bacteria
Isolation and Identification of Lactobacillus Strains from Algerian Poultry
The ability of the isolated strains to produce acid from different carbohydrates was determined by API 50 CHL test kits (BioMerieux, S.A., France). The results were loaded onto the API system software, which used the phenotypic data to predict a species identity (%) for each isolate.
Pediococcus Strain Identification Using 16S rDNA and Genomic Sequencing
manufacturer’s instructions. Next, we used whole-genomic sequence analysis, which was carried out by Takara Bio Inc. (Shiga, Japan). Briefly, the sequence was analyzed by using a PacBio
RS II (Pacific Biosciences, Menlo Park, CA, USA), and the obtained reads were assembled by a genome assemble algorithm, SMRT Analysis v2.3.0 (Pacific Biosciences, Menlo
Park, CA, USA). The obtained contig sequences including the 16S rRNA gene sequence were further analyzed by NCBI BLAST (
Bacterial Catalase and Carbohydrate Utilization
The API 50 CHL All strains were identified (genus and species) and characterized based on biochemical evaluation tests using a bioMerieux API 50 CHL test kit according to the manufacturer's instructions (BioMerieux, Marcy l'Etoile, France). The test API 50 CHL put in evidence the enzymatic equipment bacteria, which differs from one species to another. The API 50 CHL consists of 50 microtubes used to study carbohydrates fermentation. The fermentation tests are inoculated with bacterial strain suspension in API 50 CHL medium which rehydrates the substrates. During incubation, the ability of isolate to ferment carbohydrates is indicated by the colour change of the basal medium used, caused by the anaerobic production of acid and detected by the pH indicator present in the selective medium. The strips are visually examined after 24-72 h. A positive or negative result was determined from the colour change from purple to yellow. The results were then introduced to the API databases using APIwebTM 50 CHL V5.1 and ABIS online software (Stoica and Sorescu, 2017) .
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
