* Using this software requires advanced knowledge and skills in the field of microbiology. Young researchers, beginners or students should ask for the guidance of a senior microbiologist or a teacher, otherwise they may get unreliable results.

* ABIS online is a laboratory tool for bacterial identification based on morphological and biochemical characters. Identification results are only informative and are not intended to represent an official statement. We are trying to keep up with the Approved Lists of Bacterial Names changes and regularly update the databases.

* Metabolic characters of the microorganisms may vary inside species, therefore not fully matching the identification patterns. Do not entirely rely on biochemical identification; check ABIS Encyclopedia for cultural and phenotypical characters, ecology and pathogenicity data before making a final decision.

* Cookies and similar technologies are used for data processing, analysis and calculation. By accessing this software you consent to their use. Creating a user account is not necessary, the name you enter will be used during bacterial identification and will appear on the printed results.
