Clinical comparison of BACTEC 9240 plus aerobic/F resin bottles and the isolator aerobic culture system for detection of bloodstream infections.
The Plus Aerobic/F resin bottle of the BACTEC 9240 automated blood culture system (Becton Dickinson Diagnostic Instrument Systems, Sparks, Md.) was compared with aerobic culture of the Isolator system (Wampole Laboratories, Cranbury, N.J.) for the detection of bloodstream microorganisms from 6,145 blood cultures collected from adult patients with suspected septicemia. The BACTEC resin bottles w...
متن کاملControlled clinical evaluation of BACTEC Plus Aerobic/F and BacT/Alert Aerobic FAN bottles for detection of bloodstream infections.
A total of 7,190 blood culture sets were obtained from adult patients with a suspected bloodstream infection. A 20-ml sample of blood was distributed equally between the aerobic FAN bottle which was monitored in the BacT/Alert system and a Plus Aerobic/F bottle which was monitored in the BACTEC 9240 system. A total of 988 positive cultures were obtained from 483 patients; however, only 453 posi...
متن کاملClinical comparison of isolator and BACTEC 660 resin media for blood culture.
The 10-ml Isolator system (E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Co., Inc., Wilmington, Del.) was compared with the BACTEC 16A-17A nonradiometric resin system (Johnston Laboratories, Inc., Towson, Md.) for isolation of organisms from 6,839 paired blood cultures. Equal volumes of blood (6 to 10 ml for each Isolator and 3 to 5 ml for each BACTEC bottle) were cultured in parallel in the two systems, and 600 i...
متن کاملComparison of BACTEC 9240 Peds Plus medium and isolator 1.5 microbial tube for detection of Brucella melitensis from blood cultures.
The sensitivity and time to detection of Brucella melitensis by the BACTEC 9240 and the Isolator blood culture systems were compared in a prospective volume-controlled study. Blood sample aliquots, obtained from children with suspected brucellosis, were inoculated into a BACTEC 9240 Peds Plus bottle and into an Isolator 1.5 Microbial Tube. Overall, 122 pairs of blood samples for culture were ob...
متن کاملUse of the BACTEC 9240 System with Mycosis-IC/F blood culture bottles for detection of fungemia.
A recent study by Horvath et al. (5) assessed the use of BACTEC Plus Aerobic/F and Anaerobic/F blood culture (BC) bottles with the BACTEC 9240 system to detect yeasts in a simulated-candidemia model. The authors concluded that further research was needed to optimize the recovery of Candida spp. from this automated BC system because of the high rate of false negatives and the long time to detect...
