摘要: An apparatus and method for mixing/agitating microorganism culture bottles includes a wheel in which culture bottles are placed, with the wheel being set at an angle from vertical so that bottles are not inverted during rotation. A sensor such as a florescence or colorimetric sensor for carbon dioxide is disposed along the flat bottom surface of each of the bottles. Once during each revolution the bottles pass across a photodiode/light emitting diode pair (for a calorimetric system). A sensor transmits light emitted by the LED to the photodiode. At the same instant, an infrared reflective objective sensor, emitting on a digital rotary encoder, determines the bottle number. The change in sensor transmittance is directly related to cell growth so that bottles positive for growth can be detected by suitable software.

摘要: A method and a sealable, sterilizable vessel for detecting the presence of microorganisms in a specimen, the vessel containing a liquid culture medium and a sensor with an indicator medium therein. A gas permeable membrane with a gas impermeable removable seal thereon are provided in a wall of the vessel. If the microorganism to be detected is an anaerobic organism, then the gas impermeable seal is left in place. If the microorganism to be detected is an aerobic organism, then the gas impermeable seal is removed so as to allow the passage of oxygen into the vessel. In a preferred embodiment, the gas permeable membrane allows the passage of oxygen into the vessel while at least partly restricting the passage of carbon dioxide to outside of the vessel. Changes in the indicator medium resulting from a change in gas production (CO.sub.2, NH.sub.2, H.sub.2 S, etc.), volatile acid production or pH concentration in the medium, are detected from outside the vessel.
