A member asked:
What tests shall i go for to diagnose listeria infection ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Listeria: Any tissue or fluid can be tested for an infection: skin, semen, blood, urine, wound discharge, sputum, etc. We typically go for the most likely source for the infection. For example, tuberculosis likes to reside in the stomach, so we test gastric juices for tb.
