Anaerobic Bacterial Culture From A Body Sample

Oklahoma rates for HCPCS 87075

A sample taken from almost anywhere in the body other than the bloodstream is grown in the laboratory in an oxygen-free environment, so that bacteria which can only survive without oxygen have a chance to multiply. Any organisms that grow are separated out and given a preliminary identification. These bacteria are common in deep, closed-off infections such as abscesses and are easily missed when a sample is only grown in ordinary air.
