Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sampler technology, and in particular to a positive sampler for blood culture bottles. Background Technology

[0002] A blood culture bottle is a test tube specifically designed to detect bacterial or fungal infections in the blood. Fresh blood is placed in a bottle containing a culture medium, and under specific culture conditions, the microorganisms in the blood are allowed to grow rapidly, enabling diagnosis and analysis to diagnose and treat various diseases related to blood infections.

[0003] Currently, the microbiology laboratory in the clinical laboratory uses ordinary syringes to directly puncture blood culture positive sample bottles and when drawing samples from blood culture bottles. However, due to the positive or negative pressure generated by bacterial growth inside the blood culture bottle, the syringe plunger can be pushed out when there is positive pressure, causing the blood culture bottle sample to splash and contaminate the biosafety cabinet. When there is negative pressure, it is impossible to draw samples. During the operation, laboratory personnel are easily pricked by the syringe needle. At the same time, the puncture needle tip does not have corresponding protection, which can easily lead to occupational exposure risks for operators. Utility Model Content
