The human body is populated by millions of bacteria. Most of them live in the body without causing harm and even benefiting human health. But there are also bacteria that can become a medical problem. For example, E. coli, which promotes digestion and the formation of microflora, can become a causative agent of intestinal infections.
When do bacteria pose a threat?
In a healthy person’s body, the number and habitat of potentially dangerous bacteria are controlled by separate mechanisms. But if they fail, bacterial colonies can begin to multiply and get into other organs, leading to serious diseases. In the example of E. coli, such diseases can be:
- diarrhea;
- coli-sepsis;
- severe meningitis.
The penetration of such a pathogen to other organs usually occurs due to poor personal hygiene or a weakened immune system.
The main analysis for E. coli is a bacteriological culture. To conduct it, a part of the biological material is taken, for which a nutrient medium is created. In such a medium, the material is kept for several days, after which the number of multiplied colonies is assessed. Other cultures are also carried out according to this principle, for example, bacterial culture for carriage of staphylococcus. You can take a test for Staphylococcus aureus or other carriers of infectious diseases at the Med-Help+ medical center.
Taking tests at the Med-Help+ clinic
Doctors strongly recommend undergoing a preventive examination for carriers of infectious diseases at least once a year. You should not wait until alarming symptoms appear, since an asymptomatic carrier may already be operating in the body, which will sooner or later make itself known. The sooner you detect the presence of dangerous pathogens, the easier it is to overcome them.
The Med-Help+ Clinic is an opportunity to take bacterial cultures for pathogens of intestinal infections, in particular E. coli, as well as staphylococcus. You can undergo a preventive examination without a queue in the comfortable conditions of a modern center and receive test results in the shortest possible time. The price list with prices for tests is presented on our website.
