<p>A culturing method includes culturing a sample having one or more species of target pathogens of a detection assay and competing microorganisms under oxygen-poor condition in a growth medium. The growth medium can be a non-selective medium. The oxygen-poor condition is effective to prevent competing microorganisms from suppressing growth of the target pathogens. This method can be used in combination with a sample preparation method for large volume particulate samples using highly porous filter material and porous spherical filter aid.</p> |
