Comparative study of antibiotic adsorption capacity of three brands of blood culture bottles
The BacT/ALERT system has relative advantages in the detection rate, TTD, and antibiotic adsorption capacity, and can be used selectively in patients who have received antibiotic therapy. The use of BacT/ALERT medium resulted in a relative increase in detection rates, as well as in the type and number of strains detected compared to the VersaTREK medium previously used in the comprehensive ICU.
