摘要

A thin film culture device for detection of antibiotic-resistant microorganisms is provided. The device can include indicators to differentiate staphylococcal from non-staphylococcal microorganisms. Methods of use include detecting or enumerating antibiotic-resistant microorganisms. The methods further include obtaining a differential count of staphylococcal and non-staphylococcal microorganisms.
