Neisseria cinerea and Neisseria gonorrhoeae may occur at the same body sites and may
have similar colony morphologies. Ideally, systems used for rapid identification of N …

A total of 156 clinical isolates were tested by the modified rapid fermentation test, the
BACTEC Neisseria differentiation kit, and the cystine-Trypticase agar method. The modified …
