detection of bartonella rochalimaea quintana by routine acridine orange staining of broth blood cultures
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1994Co-Authors: Ann M Larson, Molly J Dougherty, D J Nowowiejski, David F Welch, Ghassan M Matar, B Swaminathan, Marie B CoyleAbstract:Bartonella quintana was isolated from 34 BACTEC nonradiometric aerobic resin blood cultures for 10 adults. Nine patients were initially diagnosed by routine acridine orange staining of routine cultures that had been incubated for 8 days. All Subcultures grew on chocolate agar within 3 to 12 days (median, 6 days). The PLUS 26 high-volume aerobic resin medium, combined with acridine orange stain and subculture, is an effective system for detection and isolation of B. quintana from blood. Images

Subcultures of bactec positive but gram or acridine orange stain negative nr 6a and 7a blood culture bottles are unnecessary
Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 1994Co-Authors: Lizzie J Harrell, S Mirrett, Barth L RellerAbstract:Abstract A prospective study was done to assess the comparative use of acridine orange and Gram stains for detecting false-positive Bactec blood culture bottles, thereby eliminating unnecessary Subcultures. A total of 1049 NR 6A and 7A bottles that were instrument-positive in the Bactec 660 nonradiometric system, but were Gram stain-negative, had aerobic and anaerobic Subcultures as well as an acridine orange stain performed. Only five of 1049 (0.5%) instrument-positive, Gram stain-negative bottles grew microorganisms on subculture. Of these five microorganisms, acridine orange stain detected two. All five microorganisms were assessed not to be clinically significant based on review of the patients' charts. Our data showed that the Gram stain and the acridine orange stain are comparable for detecting false-positive NR 6A and 7A bottles. We conclude that subculture of Bactec -positive, Gram stain-negative NR 6A and 7A bottles is not necessary.

Subcultures and sustainability practices the impact on understanding corporate sustainability
Business Strategy and The Environment, 2009Co-Authors: Martina K Linnenluecke, Sally Russell, Andrew GriffithsAbstract:In this paper we present findings of how employees from a single organization understand corporate sustainability. Responses from 255 survey participants indicate (1) that differences exist in how employees understand corporate sustainability and (2) that these differences can be partially explained by the presence of organizational Subcultures and by differences in employee awareness of the organization's sustainability practices. In particular, findings reveal that employees from a subculture with a stronger emphasis on hierarchical and bureaucratic values emphasize an economic understanding of corporate sustainability. Implications for research and practice are discussed. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd and ERP Environment.
