[Study of the realiability of the Limulus amebocyte lysate test for the detection of bacteriuria (author's transl)]. 1976

M Musiani, and M Gatti, and R Cevenini, and M La Placa

The Limulus amebocyte lysate test has shown a good agreement with the results of cultural methods for the detection of gram-negative bacteriuria. In particular this test would seem promising in the examination of urine samples where the presence of antibacterial substances makes unreliable the results obtained by conventional cultural techniques.
