Comparison of conventional broth blood culture technique and manual lysis centrifugation technique for detection of fungemia.
Fungemia is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Various techniques have been introduced to diagnose fungemia such as conventional broth culture medium, by blind or macroscopic subculture, vented and aerated biphasic culture medium, lysis Þ ltration agitated culture medium, radiometric and nonradiometric methods, lysis centrifugation method, etc..[1] Of these, lysis-centrifugatio...

Progressive disseminated histoplasmosis (PDH) is an increasingly common cause of infection in patients with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS). We report 21 cases of PDH associated with AIDS diagnosed by lysis-centrifugation blood culture method. The most prevalent clinical findings were fever, weight loss, respiratory symptoms, and mucocutaneous lesions. Chest roentgenogram showed diff...
متن کاملLack of utility of the lysis-centrifugation blood culture method for detection of fungemia in immunocompromised cancer patients.
We retrospectively compared the utility of a fungal isolation device (Isolator) versus conventional techniques for recovering fungal organisms from blood cultures obtained from neutropenic cancer patients. Positive cultures were deemed true pathogens, possible pathogens, or contaminants according to laboratory and clinical criteria. Fifty-three patients had 66 positive blood cultures for fungi,...
متن کاملEvaluation of conventional castaneda and lysis centrifugation blood culture techniques for diagnosis of human brucellosis.
We investigated the role of the lysis centrifugation blood culture technique over the conventional Castaneda technique for the diagnosis of human brucellosis. The lysis centrifugation technique has been found to be more sensitive in both acute (20% higher sensitivity; P < 0.00001) and chronic (40% higher sensitivity; P = 0.087) forms of brucellosis. The major advantage of lysis centrifugation w...
