The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the T2Bacteria Panel by validating the clinical performance (i.e. estimated sensitivity and specificity) of the T2Bacteria Panel compared to blood culture results and/or known Bacteria positive status of prospectively collected clinical specimens and contrived (i.e. Bacteria-spiked) whole blood "clinical samples".

Sensitivity
The primary endpoint of estimated sensitivity will be determined by comparing positive blood culture results with the concomitantly collected T2Bacteria Panel results from the prospective clinical specimens. PPA will estimated based on the positive T2Bacteria detections of contrived clinical samples.
Time frame: Up to 19 hours post blood collection
Specificity
The primary endpoint of estimated specificity will be determined by comparing the negative blood culture results with the concomitantly collected T2Bacteria Panel results from the prospective clinical specimens. NPA will be estimated based on the negative contrived clinical samples.
Time frame: Up to 19 hours post blood collection
