Automatic Urine Culture Analysis Using CPSe Agar and the WASPLab Chromogen Detection Module

Urine cultures are among the most common specimen received by clinical laboratories and generate a major share of the laboratory workload. Chromogenic agar has been used to expedite culture results, but technologists are still needed to review every plate. In this study, the researchers evaluated the WASPLab software to interpret urine specimens plated to chromID CPS Elite (BioMerieux) agar.
