Evaluation of the Cult-a-Box gas generator system for isolation of Campylobacter spp. from stool specimens

Abstract

The Cult-a-Box gas generator tablet method for isolating Campylobacter spp. from stool cultures was evaluated by comparison with a standard gas mixture of 5% oxygen, 10% carbon dioxide, and 85% nitrogen. Of the 186 positive cultures, 90.3% were found by both methods. Of the remaining 9.7% which were positive in one system only, 11 were found by the tablet method and 7 by the standard gas method.
