Previous studies have demonstrated that significant gram-negative bacteriuria can be detected by using the Limulus amoebocyte lysate test. A series of 580 urine specimens were tested in parallel with the automated MS-2 (Abbott Laboratories) assay and with quantitative urine bacterial cultures. The overall ability of the MS-2 Limulus amoebocyte lysate test to correctly classify urine specimens as containing either greater than or equal to 10(5) organisms or less than 10(5) organisms per ml during a 20-min test period was 92.6%.
先前的研究表明，使用鲎试剂检测法可以检测到显著的革兰氏阴性菌尿。对580份尿液标本进行了一系列检测，同时采用自动化MS-2（雅培实验室）检测法和定量尿液细菌培养法。在20分钟的检测期内，MS-2鲎试剂检测法将尿液标本正确分类为每毫升含有大于或等于10⁵个细菌或少于10⁵个细菌的总体能力为92.6%。
