[Characteristics of a new colorimetric test for the rapid screening of bacteriuria compared to the traditional culture method].
Eight hundred eighty five samples of urine sent for culture were examined at the same time with BDD Ortho. In a smaller amount (348) of these samples a microscopic examination of urine sediment was also carried out. Results obtained allow the authors to state that BDD is a good instrument for the screening of bacteriurias.
