Apparatus for making a bacteriological test on plasma, comprising a sedimentation unit (29) for a blood sample (12) contained in a first container (14) to separate the corpuscular part (24) of the sample (12), which sediments on the bottom of the first container (14), from the liquid part or plasma (26), pick-up means (28) to pick up a portion of the surnatant, and to inoculate the portion in a culture ground in inside a second container (30) allowing a bacterial growth, optical measurement means (32), to effect measurements of the culture ground in order to determine the presence of bacteria and microorganisms, and processing means (38) comprising a data bank (39), to collect measurement data, to construct a curve that represents the intensity of the radiation diverted by the culture ground in the measurement with respect to time, whose parameters are compared with reference values in order to determine analysis parameters, said values being characteristic for each bacterial species. Disclosed is further a corresponding method. |
