13. Evaluation of preservative fluid for urine collected for culture.
Immediate culture or refrigeration of urine is recommended, but not always practical. Therefore, we evaluated the Becton-Dickinson Urine Culture Kit containing a boric acid-glycerol-sodium formate preservative in a study of 1,000 clinical urine specimens. Each specimen was cultured a total of four times by the surface streak technique with a 0.001-ml calibra

14. A simple method for short-term (6-hour) transport of the dog heart prior to orthotopic transplantation
A method of transporting the isolated dog heart for periods of up to 6 hours is described. It consists essentially of flush-cooling the heart with a suitable water-based solution at 4-6° C. followed by storage in a specially designed portable container which maintains the temperature of the heart at 4-6° C. The viability of the hearts was tested by orthoto

15. Automation of microbial enumeration: development of a disposable hydrophobic grid-membrane filter unit.
A disposable filter unit containing a hydrophobic grid-membrane filter (HGMF) was developed. The unit is liquid tight to serve as a specimen transport container and, by removal of the funnel extender (175- or 300-ml capacity), the unit becomes less than the height of two stacked petri plates to save space during in situ incubation. The polyethylene mesh whic

16. Mechanical transmission of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus throughout a coordinated sequence of events during warm weather
Mechanical transmission of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) throughout a coordinated sequence of events that replicated common farm worker behavior during warm weather (10°C to 16°C) was assessed using a field-based model. The model involved fomites (boots and containers), vehicle sanitation, transport, and personnel movement. In
