Stool - culture for Salmonella and Shigella carriage (SANEPID entry) - 3 samples

Please note that the material should be delivered from Monday to Wednesday.

Sanitary examinations

Sanitary stool tests for Salmonella-Shigella carriage are performed to obtain a certificate for sanitary-epidemiological purposes (formerly an entry in the sanitary-epidemiological booklet).

Salmonella bacteria inhabit the gastrointestinal tract and are excreted in feces. They can cause, among other things:

 

• gastroenteritis manifested by, among other things, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting,
• typhoid fever,
• red fever (dysentery), manifested by diarrhea and blood and mucus in the stool,

Infection occurs through the oral route as a result of ingestion of contaminated food (e.g., eggs, poultry, dairy products) or water, usually as a result of failure to observe hygiene rules.

Sanitary tests when to perform

Take a carrier test. With a negative result, you will be allowed to work with food and other jobs where there is a possibility of transmitting an infection or infectious disease.
