Popis: The diagnostic efficiency of three test-systems designed for staphylococci identification including the definition of opportunistic errors was comparatively studied. The identification results coincidence (IRC) made, versus the reference method, 57 +/- 14% for Staphylococci Differentiation Biochemical Plate (SDBP--Russia) 73.83 +/- 3.6% for STAPHYtest-16 (Check Republic) and 58.33 +/- 5.03% for API-Staph (France). The diagnostic efficiency of the studied test-systems was found to be in proportion with the total information density of the identification tests belonging to each of them, which could be used for determining an optimal test list that would ensure the maximum diagnostic effect with minimal cost.
