    If entamoeba histoyltica parasite... Spreads in body, organs and blood is it difficult to detect in stool?

    • @VitalifeMedLab
      @VitalifeMedLab  Рік тому +1

      Hi 👋 If the patient has not been Treated for amebiasis.... then the parasite will still be detected in stool since the Amoebae invade the bloodstream from the intestines and spread to the liver and other parts of the body where they eventually form abscesses which can only be detected by an examination of aspirates directly from the abscesses for E. histolytica trophozoites.
      It is also Very Important to note the symptoms of the patient that may be able to indicate if the parasite has spread such as Severe Pain and tenderness in the affected region, fever, chills, night sweats, anemia and jaundice that may suggest the presence of E. histolytica abscesses in the body.

    Sir entamoeba histolytica parasite can be found in urine?

    • @VitalifeMedLab
      @VitalifeMedLab  Рік тому +2

      Hello 👋 Entamoeba histolytica is usually found in stool after eating contaminated food or water....
      Parasites are rarely found in urine.... But a few may infect the bloodstream or urinary bladder and then are found in the urine (eg. Schistosoma haematobium).

      Hi 👋 Thank you for your feedback....
      This culture test was intended for a Urine Colony Count using a 1 μl calibrated disposable loop... The number of colonies that grew from 1 μl (microlitre) was converted to number of colonies per ml (millilitre) of urine to determine the presence of a urinary infection....
      If you have any other questions... Please ask!
      Thank you.

    • @VitalifeMedLab
      @VitalifeMedLab  3 роки тому

      You can also divide 10 μl (microlitres) by 10 to obtain 1 μl per ml (millilitre) of urine to complete your calculations.

      Hello! A semen analysis is a common test that examines the overall health of male semen (composed of sperm cells in a fluid) by observing the volume (amount), viscosity (thickness), number of sperm cells (microscopic count) and morphology of cells in a drop of semen sample...
      This test may assist couples who are trying to conceive or males who may experience some problems during ejaculation and have also performed a urine analysis to eliminate urinary tract infections...

      HiCrome UTI Agar, is a Chromogenic differential medium that is used to identify urinary pathogens.
      Enzymes that are produced by Enterobacteriaceae e.g. Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecalis, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus change color or appear in different colors with the growth of bacteria on the medium.
      Reporting is normally done after a urine colony count using 1 μl (microliter) of urine is performed. There are some calculations that are used to confirm the extent of an infection.
      *******************************************
      The Kirby Bauer Sensitivity Test is reported after the diameters of the zones of inhibition are measured to the nearest whole millimeter using a simple ruler, which is held on the back of the inverted plate.
      The sizes of the zones of inhibition are interpreted by referring to Tables (Zone Diameter Interpretative Standards and equivalent Minimum Inhibitory Concentration Breakpoints). The organisms are reported as either Susceptible, Intermediate, or Resistant to the antibiotics that have been tested.

      You can inoculate a Single colony directly onto Muller Hinton agar or you can adjust the turbidity of Multiple colonies in McFarland to standardize the antibiotic sensitivity testing.

      It is normally called Aseptic Pyuria which may occur in cases of dehydration or some other infections which appear negative on the urine culture but positive on other cultures such as urethral or cervical cultures that detect chlamydia and gonorrhea infections.

      And yes, you can use nutrient agar for the growth of non-fastidious microorganisms in pus or sputum, such as Pseudomonas which produces extracellular pigmentation on nutrient agar....
      There are certain protocols and procedures that are followed in the laboratory to test urine, stool, sputum and various other samples depending on the symptoms of the patient and the disease that is suspected....
      For bacterial infections these include: macroscopic and microscopic examination of the sample... Followed by Gram staining and culture of the the samples and then biochemical identification tests and finally antibiotic sensitivity tests.....
      Various culture media of different composition support the growth of different microorganisms based on their specific nutritional requirements and subsequent biochemical identification tests...
