Recovery of six anaerobic and five aerobic pathogens from viscose swabs and polyurethane swabs (Culturette EZ) was evaluated quantitatively, and transport in aerobic dry tubes, aerobic Amies transport medium (Transwab), and anaerobic universal transport medium (Port-a-Cul) was compared. The Culturette EZ in aerobic dry tubes gave the highest recovery levels. Data obtained with clinical specimens confirmed these results.
对从粘胶拭子和聚氨酯拭子(Culturette EZ)中分离出的6种厌氧菌和5种需氧菌病原体进行了定量评估,并比较了它们在需氧干燥管、需氧阿米斯运送培养基(Transwab)和厌氧通用运送培养基(Port-a-Cul)中的运送情况。置于需氧干燥管中的Culturette EZ回收率最高。临床标本获得的数据证实了这些结果。
