This document provides guidelines for the laboratory identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing of major bacterial pathogens. It describes methods for confirming the identification of Haemophilus influenzae, Neisseria meningitidis, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Salmonella Typhi, Shigella, and Vibrio cholerae. It also provides standardized protocols for antimicrobial susceptibility testing of these pathogens and discusses epidemiological data needed for treatment decisions. The document was created by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in cooperation with the World Health Organization to assist reference laboratories in developing countries.
A king cobra slithers through the forest, hunting for its next meal. As the world's largest venomous snake, it uses its sharp senses to track prey from over 300 feet away. When ready to strike, it coils its body and raises itself high, spreading its large hood to appear threatening. With a powerful bite from its hollow fangs, it injects a venomous dose before consuming its victim whole. Though a dangerous hunter, the king cobra prefers to avoid conflict and will retreat or display defensive behaviors first before biting.
