Monomicrobial discrepancies between conventional ID and probe matrix ID

Specimen no.	Conventional ID	Probe matrix ID	Comment(s)
52	Corynebacterium sp.	Staphylococcus, not S. aureus	Conventional ID based on colony and Gram stain morphology
62	C. albicans	Fungi, not C. albicans	Germ tube positive, chlamydospores and blastoconidia in clusters, API ID = C. albicans
201	C. parapsilosis	Fungi, not C. albicans; Staphylococcus, not S. aureus	Probe result repeated with archived specimens
242	Corynebacterium sp.	Gram-positive (low G+C), not Staphylococcus, Enterococcus, S. pneumoniae, or Actinomycetes	Conventional ID based on colony and Gram stain morphology
265	C. albicans	Fungi, Not C. albicans	Not viable at time of reevaluation
