Plastic Aerobic Blood Culture Bottles Safe and Convenient

Posted on 24 Jul 2012
Aerobic blood culture plastic bottles provide good organism recovery through antibiotic neutralization and clear gram stain readability.

The plastic bottles run on currently available BD Bactec systems, offering efficiency with optimized workflow and data management. The BD Bactec Blood Culture System is an automated microbiology growth and detection system designed to detect microbial growth from blood specimens. Good performance is preserved along with rapid time-to-detection, enabling better diagnostics and patient care.

The Bactec FX and the Bactec 9000 family of continuous monitoring blood culturing instruments offer performance, safety, reliability, ease of use, media quality, and service.

Rapid time to detection and enhanced recovery is provided with Patented Resin media performance through antibiotic neutralization. Current breadth of media for yeast, fungi, or mycobacteria recovery supports different patient populations and blood culture needs. Continued enhanced recovery of isolates from blood cultures assist in identifying septic episodes sooner.
