Abstract

Sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim blood agar (SXT-BA), neomycin blood agar (NEO-BA) and plain sheep blood agar plates (SBA) were compared for isolating group A streptococci in 1,954 throat cultures. SBA and SXT-BA had similar isolation rates (approximately 75% of all positive isolates). NEO-BA was significantly better (87% recovery). A combination of any two media gave 92-95% recovery of group A streptococci from throat specimens.

喉部延迟培养中分离A群链球菌的初级电镀培养基的评价。

采用磺胺甲恶唑-甲氧苄啶血琼脂(sst - ba)、新霉素血琼脂(NEO-BA)和普通羊血琼脂(SBA)对1954例喉部培养的A组链球菌进行分离。SBA和SXT-BA的分离率相似(约占所有阳性分离株的75%)。NEO-BA明显更好(87%的回收率)。任何两种培养基的组合可使咽喉标本中A群链球菌的回收率达到92-95%。
