Abstract :Purpose: Blood culture sets consisting of 2 aerobic bottles or 1 aerobic and 1 anaerobic bottles could be used according to different protocols in routine blood culture applications. Better growth rates for facultative anaerobic bacteria were detected in aerobic and anaerobic bottle containing blood sets when compared to only aerobic bottle containing sets. In this study the convenience of routine usage of anaerobic blood culture bottles was evaluated for detection of anaerobic bacteria growth and increase the detection rate of facultative anaerobic bacteriaKeywords : blood, culture, anaerobic bacteria, Gram negative facultatively anaerobe rods
