We previously reported an inhibitory effect on Mycobacterium avium-M. intracellulare (MAI) when blood collected and processed with the Isolator system was placed in BACTEC 12B bottles for radiometric monitoring. We sought to identify the specific component(s) of the Isolator lysis-anticoagulant

The tube coagulase test (TCT) performed directly from positive blood culture bottles has been used to reduce the turnaround time for identifying Staphylococcus aureus. Most reports have shown the test to be specific but often lacking sufficient sensitivity to be

The detection of Brucella bacteremia by subculture does not always correlate with a positive signal in the BACTEC NR730 nonradiometric system (Becton Dickinson Diagnostic Instrument Systems, Sparks, Md.). The effect of the inoculum size, pH, sodium polyanetholesulfonate, carbon sources (i-erythritol
