ABSTRACT:
A method of determining the presence or absence of a nonparaffinophilic microorganism in a specimen taken from a patient. The method includes providing a receptacle containing an aqueous solution and adjusting the solution to mimic the in vivo clinical conditions of the patient. The method further includes inoculating the solution with the specimen and then placing in the receptacle a slide coated with a carbon source to bait the nonparaffinophilic microorganism. The slide is then analyzed after exposure to the specimen to determine the presence or absence of the nonparaffinophilic microorganism. An associated apparatus is also disclosed.
