Abstract
The criterion enunciated by Kass for interpreting the quantitative examination of urine is critically reappraised. The role of organisms other than those of the aerobic bowel flora, especially fastidious organisms, in urinary tract infections is discussed in detail. Clinical microbiologists are urged to pay more attention to the bacteriological examination of urine and to play a greater part in the diagnosis and treatment of infections of the urinary tract and its adjacent structures.Entities:
