We compared liquid (BACTEC 12B) and solid culture media for the diagnosis of Mycobacterium avian complex (MAC) bacteremia among 258 AIDS patients with a positive blood culture. Neither culture media alone had adequate sensitivity; BACTEC 12B detected growth earlier. Use of both liquid and solid media may improve the yield of mycobacterial blood culture.
我们比较了液体培养基(BACTEC 12B)和固体培养基在258例血培养阳性的艾滋病患者中诊断鸟分枝杆菌复合体(MAC)菌血症的效果。单独使用任何一种培养基都没有足够的敏感性;BACTEC 12B能更早检测到生长。同时使用液体和固体培养基可能会提高分枝杆菌血培养的阳性率。
