STOOL ...DIAGNOSTICS!
SOME INFO..
Microscopy of wet film.

Culture on selective media for Salmonella, Shigella and Campylobacter sp, and (if clinically appropriate) for Aeromonas hydrophila, Yersinia spp, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Vibrio cholerae and Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli.

Molecular genetics using PCR probes may be used to detect Shiga toxin-producing E. coli.

Testing for Clostridium difficile toxin is required in antibiotic-associated diarrhoea; some laboratories also culture for Clostridium difficile.

In children, EIA for detection of rotavirus and adenovirus antigen.

PCR or electron microscopy for norovirus, and the like, in the investigation of diarrhoeal outbreaks.

Viral culture, detection in the investigation of meningitis and encephalitis.

APPLICATION-
Diarrhoea, when severe or prolonged;
enteric fever or typhoid carrier state;
haemolytic uraemic syndrome (Shiga toxin-producing E. coli);
PUO;
aetiological diagnosis during outbreaks of viral meningitis or encephalitis.

Interpretation:

The presence of white cells or red cells is significant.

Isolation of a recognised pathogen does not exclude the possibility of underlying inflammatory bowel disease (eg, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis).

The significance of a bacterial isolate depends on clinical circumstances.

when i was in class two i suffered from typhoid. it made me very weak, i couldn't do anything, couldn't eat anything for a month. i know that Aloe-Vera and pure honey can be used to prevent and cure typhoid fever. Pure honey, Aloe-Vera and the white part of egg should be properly mixed together, this mixture is even more effective than many antibiotics popularly used for anti-typhoid orthodox drugs.
