Even though detection rates of "GC" increased using TLA it would be interesting to know how many of these patients were already on treatment for GC prior to this information. A very high percentage of the time I find GC growing on a plate in quantities of 1K-10K I also find the physician has already treating for GC or run a GC/CT probe and has the information before the culture.
Have the participants noticed a difference in recoveries of lipophilic Corynebacterium, I.e., Corynebacterium urealyticum from immunocompromised patients?
