More Easily Cultivated Than Identified: Classical Isolation With Molecular Identification of Vaginal Bacteria
22 Jul 2016
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Women with bacterial vaginosis (BV) have complex communities of anaerobic bacteria. There are no cultivated isolates of several bacteria identified using molecular methods and associated with BV. It is unclear whether this is due to the inability to adequately propagate these bacteria or to correctly identify them in culture. METHODS: Vaginal fluid from 15 women was plated on 6 different media using...
