Dithiotreitol pre-treatment of synovial fluid samples improves microbiological counts in peri-prosthetic joint infection

PURPOSE: Synovial fluid cultures of periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) may be limited by bacteria living in the fluids as biofilm-aggregates. The antibiofilm pre-treatment of synovial fluids with dithiotreitol (DTT) could improve bacterial counts and microbiological early stage diagnosis in patie...
