Factors affecting detection of Brucella melitensis by BACTEC NR730, a nonradiometric system for hemocultures

Factors affecting detection of Brucella melitensis by BACTEC NR730, a nonradiometric system for hemocultures

The detection of Brucella bacteremia by subculture does not always correlate with a positive signal in the BACTEC NR730 nonradiometric system (Becton Dickinson Diagnostic Instrument Systems, Sparks, Md.). The effect of the inoculum size, pH, sodium polyanetholesulfonate, carbon sources (i-erythritol...
