And the sensitivity varies with methods (Ohlemeyer et al., 1998; Riley et al., 1995). Other factors could also cause the differences, such as climate difference, management level and sample size.

2012, Clinical Pediatric Emergency MedicineCitation Excerpt :In contrast, culture in Diamond broth medium preserves parasite viability and requires a smaller inoculum, such that the test has a superior sensitivity as compared with wet-mount microscopy. Disadvantages of culture with Diamond broth are its cost, susceptibility to bacterial contamination, and incubation time of 2 to 7 days.38 The InPouch system (Biomed Diagnostics, White City, OR) allows testing of a vaginal discharge specimen with both wet mount and culture.
