| name | Intracellular bacteria [Presence] in Ear by Light microscopy | ||
| description | The presence (none, few, marked, etc.) of intracellular bacteria (e.g. cocci or bacilli) in an ear swab sample taken from the left external ear. In veterinary medicine, the presence of intracellular bacteria in ear specimens indicates a more active leukemic cell response than simply the presence of white cells. In cases where white cells and bacteria are in proximity but the bacteria do not appear to be ingested suggests either sample contamination, ineffective neutrophils, or that the bacteria seen are not the cause of the inflammation. | ||
