Field evaluation of New York City medium in the biological environment-CO2 chamber in recovery of Neisseria gonorrhoeae and urogenital mycoplasmas
Abstract
The biological environment-CO2 chamber containing New York City (NYC) medium was evaluated in a clinical field trial in comparison with Transgrow and NYC medium in plates for the recovery of Neisseria gonorrhoeae and with NYC medium for urogenital mycoplasmas. The results of the study indicated that the biological environment chamber-CO2 culturing system with NYC medium is an effective method for the handling, transport, and culture of N. gonorrhoeae, large-colony mycoplasmas, and T-mycoplasmas if the delay in transport and incubation does not exceed 24 h.
