how do they test for infections of the Gut in stool samples?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 46588461


A culture is taken. The stool is spread on to a petri dish containing special nutrients which allow or inhibit bacteria, or fungi to grow.

This is then stained and examined under a microscope.

Might be true. They had logs in that lab that seemed to grow overnight!
