The ability of the ID 32E system to identify and discriminate 74 Escherichia coli O157 isolates among 106 E. coli non-O157 isolates was evaluated. The results showed atypical biochemical reactions but accurate identification at the species level and no unique biochemical profile numbers for E. coli O157, although these numbers were distinct from those of other serotypes.
