Flocked swabs combined with platforms to inoculate and streak specimens: a pre-analytical workstation for microbiology automation
Introduction. The bacteriology processes almost all the clinical specimens through manually performed cultures and therefore needs to evolve toward automated systems.We report our experience on the benefits of combination between liquid-based flocked swab transport systems (Copan Innovation) and pla...
