RESUMO
The National Laboratory of Reference of Pathogenic Neisserias of "Pedro KourÝ" Tropical Medicine Institute studied 58 strains which had been previously identified as Neisseria meningiditis and isolated from nasopharyngeal carriers from 1985-1998. They were applied the knapp detection scheme plus the glutamiltransferase production test. The latter and the polyscharide production based on 5 sacarose allowed to make a differential diagnosis between N. meningitidis and Neisseria polyccharea. It was possible to identify a N. polysaccharia strain, a species that is reported for the first time in Cuba.
