  • Hi! Welcome to Blood Talks! An infection can be caused by either gram-positive or gram-negative bacteria. Knowing which type of bacteria that caused the infection will help determine the right antibiotic for each infection. We would not want to just give a broad-spectrum antibiotic randomly because that would contribute to creating superbugs. The zone of inhibition in the antibiotic sensitivity test will help determine which antibiotic works for each type of bacteria.

    Welcome to Blood Talks Fam. Blood Talks offers you a peek into how clinical laboratory scientists (CLS) or medical laboratory technologists (MLT) work in a hospital. CLS/MLT hold an important role in the healthcare system, but unfortunately, many people do not know that they even exist, simply because most of CLS/MLT work is done behind the scenes. In this channel, you can find explanations from a clinical laboratory point of view. I hope you enjoy and learn something you did not know before.
