Time-to-result in minutes for GBS detection according to GBS density in culture

The bottom, middle, and top lines of each box plot correspond to the 25%, 50%, and 75% cumulative frequencies of the observed values, respectively. The endpoints of the whiskers show the 2.5th and 97.5th percentiles. GBS culture load was categorized as follows: (0) no GBS, (1) colonies on a single quadrant, (2–3) colonies on two to three quadrants, and (4) colonies on four quadrants. The number of specimens for the Ampliflash® test and the PlusLife® test by GBS culture category was (0) 2 and 16, (1) 8 and 13, (2–3) 16 and 16, and (4) 52 and 47, respectively. Statistical analysis was performed using the Kruskall-Wallis test. * p < 0.05, *** p < 0.0001
