A short term culture means slightly different things in different contexts. In neurobiology, since the cells taken may not be able to divide there is no alternative to taking an explant and putting it into culture so that things like ion channels on the axons could be studied. In the context of microbiology though a short term culture is simple that. A sample is put into culture media and allowed to grow. Later some measure like the number of colonies formed might be used as a diagnostic.
