| dc.description.abstract | Asymptomatic bacteriuria is a common finding in both healthy women and men and women with urinary tract abnormalities. It is also known as bacteriuria or asymptomatic urinary tract infection. Asymptomatic bacteriuria is defined as having an isolated urinary tract pathogen with at least 105 CFU/mL and no signs or symptoms of urinary tract infection. ABU affects up to 6% of the healthy population and 20% of the elderly. ABU strains rarely cause symptoms, and the majority of ABU patients do not require treatment. Place the loop on an agar plate to allow the urine to spread. Take an exciting wire loop and vertically mix it with urine. Place it on a different plate. Incubate for 24 hours at 37 degrees Fahrenheit. To determine the number per ml
Are Women Particularly Vulnerable? The most likely cause is anatomy. Because of their shorter urethra, women are more likely than men to develop UTI. Bacteria need not travel far to infect a woman's bladder. Furthermore, the opening of the urethra is close to the rectum, which contains the bacteria that cause these infections. The most common type is E. coli.
The goal of this study was to look for bacteria in urine samples from 24 LIMU students in their late twenties. We conclude that the relationship between gender and bacterial growth is stronger in females based on the attendance of twelve young women and twelve young men. | en_US |
