متن کاملDevelopment and evaluation of the quick anaero-system-a new disposable anaerobic culture system.
BACKGROUND We developed a new disposable anaerobic culture system, namely, the Quick anaero-system, for easy culturing of obligate anaerobes. METHODS Our system consists of 3 components: 1) new disposable anaerobic gas pack, 2) disposable culture-envelope and sealer, and 3) reusable stainless plate rack with mesh containing 10 g of palladium catalyst pellets. To evaluate the efficiency of our...
متن کاملAnaerobic bacteremia: incidence, patient characteristics, and clinical significance.
PURPOSE In the 1970s, blood culture for obligate anaerobic bacteria became routine in most United States hospitals. Since then, various authorities have reported isolation of obligate anaerobes in 5% to 25% of blood cultures. Our experience suggests a much lower frequency; therefore, we retrospectively assessed the occurrence and significance of these cultures at our institutions. PATIENTS AN...
