Table 5. Detailed results of external validation.

For each strain, the identification results for the two deposits are given. %ID are confidence values given by the VITEK MS system for each identification result. COS-B = Columbia Blood Agar (bioMérieux, 43 041); BBA = Brucella blood agar (bioMérieux); COS-O = Columbia agar with 5% sheep blood (Oxoïd).
