Such an approach to bacteriuria detection is unacceptable for any screening program which requires rapid presumptive evidence of infection. In this study, the lipopolysaccharide-dependent formation of a unique dye absorption spectra of the cationic carbocyanine dye, 1-ethyl-2-[3-(1-ethylnaphtho[1,2d]-thiazolin-2-ylidene)-2-methylpropenyl] naphtho[1,2d]-thiazolium bromide, was used to detect bacteriuria caused by gram negative organisms in a hospitalized population. In an evaluation of 168 first morning and randomly collected suspected bacteriuric urines, the dye test detected 66% of the loop plate positive urines with false positive and false negative values of 28% and 34%, respectively. However, 37% of the false positive results occurred in urines containing less than 10(5) gram negative bacteria/ml and an additional 24% of the false positives were seen for patients currently receiving antibiotic treatment.

It was shown that this fecal sterol was strongly adsorbed to the polystyrene polymeric XAD-2 adsorbents at low pH, resulting in a 100% retention. The adsorbed sterols could be easily removed from the columns with acetone adjusted to pH 8.5-9 with concentrated NH4OH. It has also been demonstrated that large volumes of both fresh and sea water samples can be extracted by the \"closed\" column method in a relatively short time. The sensitivity of the column exceeded that of the conventional liquid-liquid partitioning procedure.

We have evaluated the use by Nurse Epidemiologists of Bacturcult tubes for such purposes. The urine of 111 catheterized patients was cultured daily using both the Bacturcult and streak plate method until significant bacteriuria developed (greater than 10(5) colonies/ml). Bacturcult proved as accurate as the conventional technique in detecting bacteriuria. In contrast to previous studies, the daily incidence of infection rose with increasing duration of catheterization. Concomitant antibiotic usage reduced the risk of infection but selected out multi-drug resistant organisms. Older age and procedural errors also increased the risk of infection. The study took 150 hours to complete and cost about $250. It is concluded that Bacturcult is an accurate, simple and relatively inexpensive method of detecting bacteriuria and could be useful for investigating the epidemiology of catheter-associated infections in community hospitals.</p>","PeriodicalId":12869,"journal":{"name":"Health laboratory science","volume":"15 2","pages":"86-90"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1978-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"11565452","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
