Principle And Interpretation
Enterobacteriaceae inhabit a wide variety of niches that include the human gastrointestinal tract and various environmental niches. When blood samples from a patient with suspected enteric fever is submitted for the widal test, it is useful as a routine to culture the clot after separation of serum (1). Peptone serves as a source of nitrogen, carbon, long chain amio acids and other essential amino acids. Sodium taurocholate would inhibit majority of Gram-positive species. Sodium chloride maintains the isotonicity of the medium. Whereas addition of streptokinase solution causes rapid clot lysis with release of bacteria trapped in the clot (2).
