sounds like culture soft

Subject: sounds like culture soft

Doc says culture soft showed staph egg negative. 


I know this is crazy.  I have never done this doc before and he mumbles "BIG TIME". 


My two questions in this sentence is the word after culture.  It sounds like he is saying culture soft.  My next question is staph .... sounds like egg..  or staphcoegg. 


Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  I guess I need to stop for tonight.  To late on a Sunday night to try and understand a new doc.
