Isolation of Campylobacter fetus subsp. jejuni from human fecal specimens by incubation at 35 and 42 degrees C.
Campylobacter strains were isolated from human stool specimens that were cultured on modified Skirrow agar and incubated at 35 and 42 degrees C. Incubation at 42 degrees C resulted in more isolates, increased colony numbers, and earlier isolation than was found at 35 degrees C.
