Mouse Typhoid Wand

Typhoid bacillus is a bacterium that causes a disease called typhus. This bacterium is spread through contact with an infected person or animal, or through contaminated food or water.

The murine typhus bacillus is rod-shaped and can be found in stool, urine, blood or other body fluids. It can also be on the surface of the skin or in the air.

Symptoms of typhus may include high fever, headache, weakness, loss of appetite and abdominal pain. If left untreated, typhus can lead to serious complications such as kidney failure or meningitis.

To prevent typhus, it is necessary to observe good hygiene, avoid contact with infected people and animals, and properly handle food and water. If you think you may have typhus, you should see your doctor for diagnosis and treatment.

The name of this stick is due to the fact that previously all bacteria that cause acute infectious diseases were called it. But, in 1935, it was isolated into a separate species called the salmonella bacterium. Salmonella has a roughly spherical shape and nutrients stick to it well. It is the causative agent of typhoid fever. The incubation period is approximately one to two days.

Microbes can be quite small in size - one or two per ten microns. They are mobile, which is due to the presence of a unique layer that forms flagella - special formations at the ends of the cell. These cells resemble plectranchia in shape.

The murine typhus bacillus is often used in laboratory research. It may be present on the skin of the hands after treatment with the patient’s secretions. Experiments with it are not performed without the use of gloves in order to avoid contamination of the environment and infection with viruses.
