Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) testing for anaerobic bacteria. Guides antibiotic selection in anaerobic infections.
organism in pure culture
1. Organism must be in pure culture, actively growing. Do not submit mixed cultures. 2. Place specimen in a large infectious container and label as an etiologic agent/infectious substance, if appropriate.
Preferred: Anaerobic Transport Tube. Acceptable: Thioglycollate broth or any other suitable anaerobic transport system. **Organism must be in pure culture, actively growing. Do not submit mixed cultures.
No special preparation is required for this test. You may eat, drink, and take your medications as normal, unless instructed otherwise by your healthcare provider.
This test does not require any special collection or pre-analytical handling. Follow routine specimen collection protocols.
