Abstract

A total of 189 of Enterobacteriaceae and three strains of Clostridium perfringens were tested with a new incubation-type indole paper strip. This 4-hr incubation test gave the same results as a standard 48-hr indole test, except with some strains of Proteus rettgeri. Results with P. rettgeri varied somewhat according to the medium upon which the organisms had been grown.
