Abstract

Purpose: Blood culture sets consisting of 2 aerobic bottles or 1 aerobic and 1 anaerobic bottles could be used according to different protocols in routine blood culture applications. Better growth rates for facultative anaerobic bacteria were detected in aerobic and anaerobic bottle containing blood sets when compared to only aerobic bottle containing sets. In this study the convenience of routine usage of anaerobic blood culture bottles was evaluated for detection of anaerobic bacteria growth and increase the detection rate of facultative anaerobic bacteria

Abstract

Amaç: Rutin kan kültürü uygulamalarında farklı protokoller uyarınca 2 aerop şiş e ya da 1 aerop, 1 anaerop şişeden oluşan kan kültür setleri kullanılabilmektedir. Aerop kan kültür şişeleri ile birlikte anaerop kan kültür şişelerinin kullanıldığı kan kültür setlerinde fakültatif anaerop bakterilerin yalnızca aerop şişelerin kullanıldığı kan kültürlerine göre daha iyi üredikleri gösterilmiştir. Kan kültürlerinde anaerop üremeleri saptayabilmek ve fakültatif anaerop bakterilerin de saptanabilirliğinin arttırılması amacı ile anaerop kan kültür şişelerinin rutin kullanımının uygunluğu araştırılmıştır
