Title:
METHOD FOR DETECTING BACTERIA IN BLOOD SAMPLE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/188924
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The problem of the present invention is to provide a highly convenient and prompt method for detecting existence of bacteria in blood samples with high sensitivity. By using a method comprising sequential processes (a) to (d), wherein the process (a) mixes a culture of a subject-originated blood sample with ammonium chloride and obtains a hemolysed sample; the process (b) filters the hemolysed sample with a filter membrane having pore diameter in which bacteria cannot be filtered; the process (c) collects residue caught on the filter membrane after filtering and obtains a residue sample; and the process (d) analyzes existence of bacteria in the residue sample by using a mass spectrometer; the matter of bacterial infection of the subject can be detected with high sensitivity.
