A simple method presented here included TSI agar, oxidase test, pigmentation test, catalase test and antibiograms.Results All but one B. cepacia isolate identified by phenotypic and genotypic methods were identified correctly by our method. One non B. Cepacia isolate identified by the genotypic method was identified as Burkholderia spp. by phenotyic and our methods.Conculsion The method we presented here was simple, practical for identification of clinical B. cepacia isolates.
