Specimen
Culturette (aerobic and anaerobic) from fluid (body cavity fluids), TTW, BAL, wound, lesion, or skin. Tissue sample in saline.
Description
This test is used when a bacterial infection is suspected in a tissue or fluid, but it is uncertain whether an aerobic or an anaerobic organism is the cause.

Note: fluids should be submitted in a red top tube. Tissue should be submitted in an air-tight container for anaerobic culture. Samples should be refrigerated prior to submission. Sensitivities are not performed, but drugs of choice for anaerobes are provided as a guide.
