Percentage of success in obtaining a monolayer culture (ML), the filter passage (pALI) and complete success at 28 days of ALI culture (ALI 28d) in bronchial biopsies from all patients significantly differed between cultures obtained from initial biopsies where beating ciliated cells were present versus not (p = .00001, .000002 and .0002, respectively, according to a χ 2 test)
