Cose data obtained in 16 of these laboratories were used as the basis of a discussion on the identification of indirect expenses and the method of reapportioning these costs to the diagnostic testing sections of the laboratories. Calculations of cost-per-weighted units and cost-per-test of some laboratory diagnostic sections are presented. A laboratory administrator can gain some insight into the effectiveness of resource utilization within his own laboratory by identifying cost center expenditures and considering differences in cost-per-weighted unit among the various revenue-producing sections. With the currently available data, no significant relationship between indirect costs and overall laboratory cost-per-weighted unit was demonstrated. It is hoped that additional data can be gathered and other indices developed which will help laboratory management to more precisely identify and then control indirect costs.</p>","PeriodicalId":12869,"journal":{"name":"Health laboratory science","volume":"14 2","pages":"140-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1977-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12055186","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}

{"title":"The effect of Candida albicans on the isolation of N. gonorrhoeae.","authors":"J S Ortiz,&nbsp;W E Barbeau,&nbsp;D Leonard","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Recently, several studies have reported that strains of Candida albicans and perhaps other noraml bacterial flora are capable of inhibiting the growth of Neisseria gonorrhoeae in vitro, and it is possible that this may occur in vivo as well. This possible antagonism between N. gonorrhoeae and normal flora microorganisms poses many questions regarding the reliable laboratory diagnosis of gonorrhea. Mixed cultures of C. albicans and N. gonorrhoeae were grown together on GC base agar plates with varying concentrations of nystatin. Recovery of N. gonorrhoeae was improved as nystatin concentration was increased to 25 IU/ml, while growth of C. albicans was effectively inhibited. At concentrations of 50 and 100 IU/ml nystatin also began to inhibit N. gonorrhoeae. There was a noticeable decrease of nystatin bioactivity against C. albicans when the GC plates were stored at 4 C, thus making it more difficult to isolate N. gonorrhoeae. Growth curves of C. albicans and N. gonorrhoeae grown together in liquid medium did not significantly differ from growth curves of the individual organisms. Statistical analysis of our findings does not support the theory that strains of C. albicans produce a soluble diffusible factor that is inhibitory to N. gonorrhoeae.</p>","PeriodicalId":12869,"journal":{"name":"Health laboratory science","volume":"14 2","pages":"95-101"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1977-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"11610408","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}
