CPS ID2 medium (bioMerieux) enables the presumptive identification of Escherichia coli and enterococci as well as the detection of indologenous or nonindologenous Proteeae and bacteria belonging to the Klebsiella, Enterobacter, and Serratia group with a specificity ranging from 98 to 100%. When the cultures were polymicrobial, the sensitivity varied from 70 to 97%, and the sensitivity varied from 97 to 100% when they were monomicrobial.
