Improved Thin-Layer Technique for Detection of Arginine Dihydrolase Among the Pseudomonas Species

W Zolg 1, J C G Ottow 1
PMCID: PMC379945  PMID: 4767290

Abstract

The detection of arginine dihydrolase among Pseudomonas spp. by thin-layer chromatography is described. The method is based on the procedure of Williams and co-workers (1971) but was improved in sensitivity by selection of a better solvent system.
