5.  If there is delay it is advised to transport specimen in glycerol saline because this prevent the overgrowth of commensal bacteria.  Rectal tube  Rectal tube: used in cases of cholera for collection of stool from inside the colon.

6.  Bile is collected in cases of cholycystitis by duodenal drainage.  Vomitus may be taken in cases of poisoning.

7. ENTEROBACTERIACEAE

8. Habitat: intestine Morphology & motility: - Gram negative bacilli - Non spore forming - Motile ‘peritrichate flagella / non - Capsulated / non Growth characters: - Aerobe or F. anaerobe - 37 ° C - Atmospheric Co2 - Grow easily on ordinary media

9. FAMILY ENTEROBACTERIACEAE Enterobacteriaceae, are faculatively anaerobic Gram-negative rods.

10. Classification LFNLF Escherichia coli Klebsiella Citrobacter Enterobacter Salmonella Shigella Serratia Proteus pseudomonas Providencia Yersinia Coliform group:

11. LF))Coliform bacilli 1-E.coli 2-Klebsiella 3-CITRO BACTER

12. Escherichia, Klebsiella, Citrobacter  Gram negative bacilli, non spore forming  Escherichia, Citrobacter: motile ‘peritrichate flagella, most are non- capsulated

13. 1- Sample: Urine, pus, sputum, blood, CSF, stool,.. 2- Direct Gram stained film: Commensal ‘intestine’. Lab diagnosis of (E. coli) caused disease

14. Direct smear: stained by Gram:  Gram negative bacilli,  non spore forming,  motile,  some strains are capsulated.

16. 3- Culture: - Culture characters: O2 – CO2 – Temp. - Media: - Ordinary media: grow easily - Differential media: Mac Conkey’s  rose pink colonies(LF) - Colony identification - Characters: - Gram st. film: - B.Rs (I,M,V,C), sugar f. ‘A,G’ - Litmus milk: 4- Serology: Slide agglutination ‘enteropathogenic antisera’ in case of acute gastroenteritis

17. Culture: Facultative anaerobes, grow on MacConkey’s agar and produce rose pink colonies.

19. Mucoid colonies = capsule

20.  Biochemical reaction:  Ferment glucose, maltose, mannite, lactose and sucrose with acid and gas production.  IMVC (+,+,-,-).

22. Coliform groupIndoleMRVP C itrate Escherichia ++-- Klebsiella --++ C itrobacter -+-+ Differentiation: - B.Rs: (IMVC) - Sugar fermentation: Glucose, lactose, maltose, mannite.

24. Indole: Demonstrates the ability of certain bacteria to decompose the amino acid ‘tryptophane’ present in peptone to (indole). MR: Demonstrates the ability of some bacteria to produce large amounts of [acid] from fermentation of ‘glucose’, thus lowering the pH of the medium below 4.

25. VP: Demonstrates the ability of some bacteria to ferment glucose with production of acetyl methyl carbinol. Citrate: Demonstrates the ability of some bacteria to utilise Na citrate as the only carbon source.

26. Biochemical differentiation of coliform bacilli

27. 5- Typing: - Antibiotic sensitivity  strain - Serotyping: O, H, K antigens - Ejkmann test: Use: To differentiate fecal from non-fecal E. coli Principle: Fecal strains of E.coli can grow on fluid MacConkey’s medium at 44°C producing ‘acid & gas’ (Ejkmann positive).

28. Non Lactose fermenters (NLF)

29. Shigella  Gram negative bacilli, non spore forming  non motile, non-capsulated

32. Laboratory diagnosis of shigellosis feces Diagnosis depends upon the isolation and identification of Shigella from the feces. Specimens: stool which contains mucus and blood.

33. Culture : MacConkey agar, DCA, salmonella shigella agar (SS agar). enrichment medium may be inoculated with the stool specimen and subcultured into the selective agar media after a short growth period. Shigella is facultative anaerobe, produce pale non lactose fermenting colonies on MacConkey agar and DCA and salmonella shigella agar.

34. Identification of obtained colonies by: Film stained by Gram: Shigellae are Gram- negative, non motile, non-sporulated, non capsulated rod-shaped bacteria. Biochemical reactions: All fement glucose, all ferment mannite except S dysenteriae all are non lactose fermenter except S sonnei which is late lactose fermenter.
