Vibrionaceae database: Enterovibrio norvegicus.
Streoptococcus database: S gallolyticus subsp. macedonicus, S gallolyticus subsp. pasteurianus & 32 species from genus Enterococcus
(for species list see ABIS encyclopedia).
Changes:
Streptococcus intestinalis & Streptococcus alactolyticus are considered synonyms (S. intestinalis was removed).
S. bovis & S. equinus may be considered synonyms (they are still treated as separate entities by ABIS online)
Removed tests: Growth at pH 9.6, Growth with 40% bile, Growth with 0.25% optochin & acid production from Salicin.
Added tests: acid production from Amygdalin, Arabinose, Arbutin, Fructose, Glucose, Mannose, Rhamnose, Sucrose & Xylose.
General updates:
- graphics were optimized for faster loading,
- the software is now suggesting the required tests to differentiate the first two identified species, if the id% is smaller than 1% and if there
are available tests.

Major update:
A new section based on molecular 16S rRNA sequence analysis is now available. For details and technical info see ‘Help’ page.
Changes:
H.agni & H. somnus may be synonyms of Histophilus somnis (formerly Histophilus ovis). De Ley et al., (1990) suggested that H. agni & H.
somnus be transferred to genus Histophilus, Histophilus ovis being a senior synonym for H. agni. However, none of these names are valid,
and no types have been designated.
Pasteurella langaa changed to P. langaaensis (corrected by Trüper and De' Clari 1998).
Pasteurella trehalosi changed to Biberstenia trehalosi.
New species included in ABIS databases:
Phocoenobacter uteri, Volucribacter amazonae, Volucribacter psittacicida;
Streptococcus caballi, Streptococcus castoreus, Streptococcus didelphis, Streptococcus entericus, Streptococcus henryi, Streptococcus
ictaluri, Streptococcus lutetiensis, Streptococcus massiliensis, Streptococcus merionis;

General updates:
A scripting error that was causing wrong buttons’ placement in ‘Results’ page, triggered by ‘Insufficient tests’ message, has been
corrected.
