Shigella Dysentrica Bacterial Load Test
Are you experiencing symptoms of dysentery? Visit DNA Labs UAE for the Shigella Dysentrica Bacterial Load Test, a laboratory test that quantifies the amount of Shigella dysenteriae bacteria present in a sample. This test can help in diagnosing and monitoring the infection, providing valuable insights into your health.
Test Details
The Shigella dysenteriae bacterial load test is performed on stool samples collected from individuals suspected of having a Shigella infection. The sample is cultured in a selective medium that promotes the growth of Shigella bacteria while inhibiting the growth of other bacteria. After an incubation period, the number of Shigella colonies present on the culture plate is counted. This provides an estimate of the number of Shigella dysenteriae bacteria in the sample.
Components and Price
The Shigella Dysentrica Bacterial Load Test is priced at 1360.0 AED. The test can be performed on various sample conditions, including whole blood, rectal swabs, food samples, and water samples.
Report Delivery
Your test report will be delivered within the 3rd working day via email (36 hours) and can also be obtained over the phone (24 hours).
Method and Test Type
The Shigella Dysentrica Bacterial Load Test is conducted using Real Time PCR, a highly accurate and sensitive method for detecting and quantifying viral DNA. This test falls under the category of viral tests.
Doctor and Test Department
Our experienced physicians will oversee the Shigella Dysentrica Bacterial Load Test, ensuring accurate diagnosis and interpretation of the results. The test is conducted in our Genetics department.
Pre Test Information
Prior to the test, patients are required to sign a consent document and bring any relevant clinical history for the Shigella Dysentrica Bacterial Load Test.
Diagnosing Shigella Dysenteriae
Shigella dysenteriae is a bacterium that causes dysentery, a severe gastrointestinal infection characterized by bloody diarrhea. The Shigella Dysentrica Bacterial Load Test can help in diagnosing and monitoring this infection. A higher bacterial load generally indicates a more severe infection.
It is important to note that the Shigella dysenteriae bacterial load test is specific to this particular strain of Shigella and may not detect other species or strains of Shigella bacteria. Other diagnostic tests, such as PCR or serological tests, may be required to confirm the presence of Shigella dysenteriae and differentiate it from other bacterial pathogens causing similar symptoms.
Don’t ignore the symptoms of dysentery. Contact DNA Labs UAE today for the Shigella Dysentrica Bacterial Load Test and take control of your health.
