Key for identification of presumptive BCC isolates according to their fatty acid compositions. Fatty acid compositions obtained by the cultivation of strains along all conditions described (TSBA50 and CLIN50 standard libraries and TSBA50 prolonged up to 48 h) can be evaluated using this identification key. “b” indicates that this composition is also valid for Cupriavidus spp. (C. necator, C. gilardii, C. pauculus, C. taiwanensis, and C. respiraculi) previously found in the respiratory tracts of CF patients (formerly described as Ralstonia or Wautersia) (see references 3, 11, 16, and 19).
