Specimen collection and transport.

Abstract:

:The approach to the collection and transport of meaningful and accurate microbiologic specimens depends upon the nature of the suspected infectious entity and upon the location of the pathogenic process, as well as the possession of appropriate instrumentation and containers. New information and newly developed collection-transport materials have improved the potential for the successful collection and isolation of pathogenic micro-organisms.
