pain in the infected joint, anemia, fatigue, fever.
Serratia is a type of bacteria that can be found in various environments including soil, water, and plants. Infections with Serratia typically occur in healthcare settings through exposure to contaminated medical equipment or devices. Practicing good hygiene, infection control measures, and proper disinfection of medical equipment can help prevent the spread of Serratia.
Serratia genus as a whole is dnase positive.
In the hospital, Serratia species tend to colonize the respiratory and urinary tracts, rather than the gastrointestinal tract, in adults. Serratia infection is responsible for about 2% of nosocomial infections of the bloodstream, lower respiratory tract, urinary tract, surgical wounds, and skin and soft tissues in adult patients. Outbreaks of S. marcescens meningitis, wound infections, and arthritis have occurred in pediatric wards. Serratia infection has caused endocarditis and osteomyelitis in people addicted to heroin. Cases of Serratia arthritis have been reported in outpatients receiving intra-articular injections.
Yes, Serratia is a facultative anaerobe and can ferment lactose.
serratia is a genus of bacteria Serratia are rod shapped, gram negative facultative anaerobes. The genus serratia belongs in the family Enterobacteriaceae. They produce a red pigment which gives colonies a characteristic pink colour.

An infection with no apparent signs and symptoms would be an asymptomatic infection.

Symptoms of mastoiditis may at first be the same as symptoms of an early middle ear infection.
Yes, Serratia is a facultative anaerobe and can ferment lactose.
The risk of developing serratia in a healthy adult is very rare, using normal infection control methods should prevent the accidental transmission of this disease in a hospital or home health care setting. Of course your own health needs to be considered and if you are otherwise immune compromised the risk of developing an infection is higher. If you are pregnant and wary of caring for a patient with an active infection maybe you should consider other work until after the birth of your child.
The mother may or may not experience active symptoms of the infection during the pregnancy.
Yes, it is possible to have an infection without experiencing any symptoms. This is known as an asymptomatic infection, where the person is infected with a pathogen but does not show any signs or symptoms of illness.
The symptoms of a kidney infection include high fever, horrible pain in the back and pain when urinating. You have to see a doctor for a kidney infection.
