Commercially manufactured New York City (NYC) medium and modified Thayer-Martin (MTM) medium were compared for their ability to isolate Neisseria gonorrhoeae from clinical specimens. Twenty-seven public health laboratories throughout California evaluated 4,802 specimens collected from patients attending either sexually transmitted disease or family planning clinics. Total of 726 and 737 N. gonorrhoeae isolates were recovered from NYC and MTM medium, respectively. Although less contamination was noted on NYC medium, MTM medium was equivalent to commercially prepared NYC medium for the isolation of N. gonorrhoeae from clinical specimens.
对市售的纽约市(NYC)培养基和改良的瑟耶-马丁(MTM)培养基从临床标本中分离淋病奈瑟菌的能力进行了比较。加利福尼亚州的27家公共卫生实验室对从性病或计划生育诊所就诊的患者采集的4802份标本进行了评估。分别从NYC培养基和MTM培养基中分离出726株和737株淋病奈瑟菌。虽然NYC培养基上的污染较少,但MTM培养基在从临床标本中分离淋病奈瑟菌方面与市售的NYC培养基相当。
