What It Is. A routine urine culture detects the amount of germs (microorganisms like bacteria) present in the urine. Once a urine sample is collected, a technician will keep it in conditions where microorganisms can multiply. Normally, no more than a small number of germs will be in the urine if there's no infection.
Urine Culture Test. A urine culture test involves collecting a urine sample and keeping it under specific conditions that encourage growth of bacteria or fungi. If the growth of the organisms is minimal, it means that the test is negative and there is no infection. However, if the growth of organisms is excessive, it implies a positive urine culture test and is indicative of a urinary tract infection. If the test is positive, then you may need to take some other tests to determine the appropriate treatment or medication to eliminate the infection.
