Lab diagnosis of diarrhoea involves collecting stool or rectal swab samples and transporting them to the lab within 2 hours using Cary Blair medium. Samples are analyzed through microscopy, culture, biochemical tests and serotyping to identify bacteria like E. coli, Salmonella, Staphylococcus aureus, and Vibrio that can cause diarrhoea based on their characteristics like colony morphology, gram staining, motility, and biochemical reactions. Epidemiological typing through bacteriophage is also done to trace the source of infection for some bacteria.
The PPT is mainly all about Mycobacterium Tuberculosis. Agents causing the disease Tuberculosis, pathogenesis, laboratory diagnosis, treatment and prophylaxis. It was made for both BSc and MSc students.

Hookworm is one of the most important small intestinal nematodes causing iron deficiency anemia. This PPT illustrates hookworms associated with human diseases, life cycle, pathogenesis, laboratory diagnosis, treatment and prevention of hookworm infection.
Cryptococcosis also called as Torulosis is a subacute or chronic fungal infection caused by Cryptococcus neoformans. It leads to compications such as fatal meningoencephalitis. It is an opportunistic infection in HIV-infected patients. The PPT discuss on the morphology of the fungus, pathogenesis, laboratory diagnosis and treatment.

Clinical case presentation, Proteus mirabilis.pptxArpitaChandra12
There is a clinical case presentation which have been reported in our Microbiology lab. A patient having UTI and the causative agent is Proteus mirabilis.
Urine is a waste product that is produced by the kidneys in their process of cleaning the blood and is made up of water and dissolved waste products.
The waste products are substances that the body does not need and that can be harmful to our organs if accumulated in the body.

ISOLATION AND IDENTIFICATION OF NLF BACTERIA IN VARIOUS SAMPLES.Daisy Saini
IDENTIFICATION AND ISOLATION OF NON-LACTOSE FEREMNTING BACTERIA IN VARIOUS CLINICAL SAMPLES IN A TERTIARY HOSPITAL IN INDIA, INCLUDE BIOCHEMICAL TEST BASE ON THEIR ENZYMATIC ACTIVITY AND GRAPHICAL PRESENTAION OF THEIR DISTRIBUTION ACCORDING TO SEX RATION , AGE GROUP, SAMPLE AND THEIR PROFILE.
2. Definition of Diarrhoea
Diarrhoea is defined as an increase in the
frequency, fluidity or volume of bowel
movements, relative to the usual habits of an
individual.
Passage of three or more motions a day can
be taken as diarrhoea
5. Transport
Specimens after collection should reach
the laboratary with minimum delay(2
hours).
The medium used here is CARY BLAIR’S
MEDIUM.
6. History
- History of travel.
- History of antibiotics.
- Duration of diarrhoea.
- History of passage of blood.
- History of passage of mucous.
- History of rice water stools.
- History of food intake.
- History of fever
7. Sample processing-
- Routine/Microscopy
-Gross- colour, consistency, blood, mucus,
parasite, pH, occult blood
Microscopy- Wet mount- saline & iodine.
- To look for pus cells/RBC.
- To look for ova/cyst/trophozoite.
- To look for darting motility (vibrio).
8. Culture
Pre-enrichment
-Blood agar
-MacConkey agar
-Deoxycholate agar (DCA)/Xylose lysine
deoxycholate (XLD)
-Thiosulphate citrate-bile-salts agar (TCBS)(if
there is history of rice water stool)
9. Enrichment media
- Selenite F broth
- Alkaline peptone water ( if there is
history of rice water stool )
10. Post-enrichment media
- MacConkey agar
- DCA/XLD
- TCBS (if there is history of rice water stool)
11. Colony characteristics :-
1. Staphylococcus aureus –
Blood agar- 2-4mm in
diameter,circular,raised,opaque
Nutrient agar -golden yellow pigment.
2. E.coli – On MacConkey media, colonies are pink
due to lactose fermentation.
3. Salmonella – On MacConkey agar &DCA, colonies
are colourless due to non-lactose fermentation
(NLF).
4. Vibrio – On MacConkey agar , colonies are pale
TCBS shows yellow colonies.
15. Serotyping
Epidemiological typing
Bacteriophage typing - It is done for
epidemiological purposes to trace the
source infection.
It is done in Staphylococcus aureus and
Salmonella.
