Abstract

ABSTRACT Synovial fluid specimens aspirated from patients with arthritis were inoculated into an aerobic Peds Plus blood culture bottle and monitored by the BACTEC 9240 instrument for 4 weeks. A total of 1,072 synovial fluid cultures were processed, and 15 (0.14%) were positive for Brucella melitensis . A single culture, harboring 1.3 CFU of viable organisms per ml, was missed by the instrument. All 14 positive BACTEC cultures were detected within 3 to 7 days.
