Two methods were compared for decreasing bacterial contamination in the BacT/Alert mycobacterial culture detection system. Two concentrations, 0.5 ml (standard amount) and 1.0 ml, of mycobacterial antibiotic supplement were evaluated. Contamination rates were 14% and 6% for the standard and the doubled concentrations, respectively. This difference was statistically significant (P < 0.005).
比较了两种降低BacT/Alert分枝杆菌培养检测系统中细菌污染的方法。评估了两种浓度的分枝杆菌抗生素补充剂,分别为0.5毫升(标准量)和1.0毫升。标准浓度和双倍浓度的污染率分别为14%和6%。这种差异具有统计学意义(P < 0.005)。
