    A sputum culture is a fast and relatively painless test where laboratory technicians analyze bacteria or fungi that may be growing in the lungs by studying sputum produced. Physicians may recommend a sputum culture if a patient is experiencing difficulty breathing to determine what may be causing the issue. The sputum sample is collected and analyzed in a laboratory to identify any bacteria or fungi present in the lungs.
