摘要
A study motivated by the recent revival of interest in the use of IR spectroscopy to identify bacteria is reported. A library of FT-IR spectra of dried bacterial films was compled using 16 different strains. A test set was complied from spectra of the same strains grown several months later. The test set was quantitatively compared with the library on the basis of spectral similarity in the region 980-1190 cm-1. Six of the strains in the test set were not matched with the correct strain in the library despite efforts to reproduce the conditions under which cells were grown and prepared. The results suggest that reproducibility of the bacterial spectra is a potential difficulty that must be addressed by any attempts to develop FT-IR spectroscopy as a bacterial identification method. © 1990 Society for Industrial Microbiology.
