Stool Culture and Sensitivity (Aerobic) near me in Koderma

The Stool Culture and Sensitivity (Aerobic) test helps detect the presence and type of bacteria causing the infections in the gastrointestinal (digestive) tract. This test distinguishes between the types of bacteria that cause disease (pathogenic) and the types that are normally found in the gastrointestinal tract (normal flora). Available at an affordable price with Tata 1mg labs in Koderma, the Stool Culture and Sensitivity (Aerobic) test helps determine the cause of digestive conditions such as bacterial gastroenteritis, diarrhea, dysentery, food poisoning, etc. Additionally, it helps determine which antibiotics are effective against the identified bacteria. 

For this test, collect a fresh stool sample in a clean, sterile, leak-proof screw-capped container, preferably one with a spoon. Only a small portion of about 5–10 grams (1–2 teaspoons) is needed, so avoid overfilling the container. Do not use matchboxes, paper, or other absorbent materials for collection. Also, ensure the sample is not contaminated with urine or water.
