Catheter-related blood stream infection (CRBSI) is one of the most common complications of intravenous catheters.1-3 Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) solutions are considered to be relatively good growth mediums for microorganisms due to the components.3,4 To reduce or to prevent CRBSI, the growth properties of the microorganisms causing CRBSI in TPN solutions should be understood. Also, the factors which enhance or inhibit microbial growth should be investigated and identified. Because most TPN solutions used in Japan do not contain lipid, we first investigated the growth of the microorganisms in TPN solutions without lipid in this study. All TPN solutions used here contained multivitamins, because Staphylococcus aureus needs multivitamins (or lipid) to increase.
