What to Expect: Culture & Microbiology Tests

A specimen is collected (swab, blood, urine, etc.) and sent to the lab where it's placed in a growth medium. Results for rapid tests (like strep) are available in minutes. Standard cultures take 24-72 hours. Sensitivity testing (determining which antibiotics will work) takes an additional day. Your doctor may start treatment before results are available.
