Campylobacter Details: NCBI 194, gram-negative or unknown [genus]

| Campylobacter| Campylobacter Sebald and Veron 1963 (Approved Lists 1980) emend. Tanner et al. 1981| Campylobacter Sebald and Veron 1963 (Approved Lists 1980) emend. Vandamme et al. 1991| Campylobacter Sebald and Veron 1963 (Approved Lists 1980) emend. Vandamme et al. 2010

1. Foodborne Pathogens: Campylobacter species are major causes of bacterial gastroenteritis worldwide. Infections are often associated with the consumption of contaminated food, particularly undercooked poultry, unpasteurized milk, and untreated water.

2. Symptoms: Campylobacter infections can cause symptoms such as diarrhea (often bloody), abdominal cramping, fever, nausea, and vomiting. The illness is usually self-limiting, but severe cases may require medical attention.

3. Transmission: Campylobacter is primarily transmitted to humans through the consumption of contaminated food or water. Cross-contamination during food handling and inadequate cooking practices contribute to the spread of the bacteria.

4. Incubation Period: The incubation period for Campylobacter infections is typically a few days, with symptoms appearing 2 to 5 days after exposure.

5. Complications: While most Campylobacter infections are self-limiting, some individuals may develop complications, including reactive arthritis and Guillain-Barré syndrome. Guillain-Barré syndrome is a rare but serious neurological condition that can occur after certain infections, including Campylobacter.

6. Antibiotic Treatment: In severe cases or cases with complications, antibiotic treatment may be necessary. However, antibiotics are not always recommended for routine cases of Campylobacter infection.

7. Prevention: Preventive measures include thorough cooking of poultry and other meats, practicing good hygiene in food handling, avoiding consumption of raw or undercooked eggs, and ensuring the safety of water sources.

8. Global Impact: Campylobacter infections are a significant global public health concern. They are estimated to be one of the leading causes of bacterial gastroenteritis, contributing to a substantial burden of illness.

9. Surveillance: Surveillance and monitoring of Campylobacter infections are important for identifying sources of contamination, implementing control measures, and reducing the risk of outbreaks.

Lab Reporting

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.

Desired Levels Suggestions for Campylobacter

• Frequency - how often do samples show this bacteria
• UD - An alternative statistical algorithm (which factors in the frequency)
• Kaltoft-Moldrup Heuristic Using uploaded data
• Lab Low and High are calculated using the formula that most labs use: Mean - 2 Standard Deviation to Mean + 2 Standard Deviation

These are values that are computed from lab specific samples (Patent Pending)
