Published: December 1998

We compared the Auxacolor yeast identification system (Sanofi Diagnostics Pasteur) with the API 20C Aux (bioMerieux-Vitek) using 105 isolates of medically important yeasts. The Auxacolor system provided more rapid, accurate results and displayed less interobserver variability than the API 20C Aux.
