Will a standard blood culture detect yeast or is there a specific kind just for detecting yeast?

Yeast: the answer is "it depends." Some common yeast forms can grow in standard blood culture media, butothers may require more specialized growth media. The site or suspected origin might give a clue as to whether this is likely to happen. Also, yeast sometimes require longer to grow than other bacteria, so holding the culture longer may also be indicated if a blood-born yeast is suspected.
