Part Descriptions
LP146108-8 Plesiomonas shigelloides
Plesiomonas shigelloides is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium which has been isolated from freshwater, freshwater fish, shellfish, and from many types of animals. Human exposure to P. shigelloides is likely through contaminated water which has been used for drinking, recreation, or to rinse foods that are eaten without cooking. Not all cases of ingested P. shigelloides result in illness, and the dose needed for clinical symptoms is presumed to be at least a million organisms. Symptomatic disease is usually self-limiting, and is characterized by fever, chills, abdominal pain, nausea, watery diarrhea, and vomiting. Symptoms typically begin 20-24 hours after consumption of contaminated food or water and can last from one day to one week.

LP6209-3 Culture
A culture is a laboratory procedure where a sample of tissue or fluid from a patient is placed in or on growth media (agar, broth) to induce the proliferation of potentially infectious agents (bacteria, fungi, viruses). The presence of growth is documented and the organisms are identified to determine whether or not a pathogen is present.
Once a pathogen is identified, specific testing techniques can be used to determine drug susceptibilities for assistance in treatment. [https://courses.lumenlearning.com/boundless-microbiology/chapter/culturing-bacteria/]
