  • Title: Detection of bacteriuria by dip-slide. Routine use in a large general hospital.
    Author: Ellner PD, Papachristos T.
    Journal: Am J Clin Pathol; 1975 Apr; 63(4):516-21. PubMed ID: 1091136.
    Abstract:
    The use of a dip-slide (Uricult) procedure for the culture of voided urine specimens in a large general hospital was found to give equivalent results to those obtained by conventional culture technics. There was a significant decrease in the number of unsatisfactory speciments that needed to be repeated. The dip-slide procedure was readily accepted by physicians, nurses and laboratory personnel, and significant savings for the institution were realized.
