Serological investigations for Campylobacter, Yersinia and Shigella in hospitalized children (different hospitals) in Iran revealed a contamination rate of 15% for Campylobacter, up to 19% for Yersinia and between 1 and 12% for the various strains of Shigellae. In diarrhoeal diseases the possibility of an infection with Campylobacter, Yersinia and Shigellae must be considered.

Automated continuous monitoring blood culture instruments identify metabolism byproducts and flag blood culture bottles as "positive." A Gram stain is used to visualize and characterize the microbial growth in the broth and initiate additional testing. When no organisms are seen (NOS) on Gram stain, in our laboratory, bottles are reevaluated with a Wayson stain, a rapid one-step stain that provides contrast between organisms and the background, especially in Gram-negative organisms.

Article Synopsis
- * The most commonly found PDMs were atypical enteropathogenic E. coli (16%), Yersinia enterocolitica (2%), and Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (1.7%), while other PDMs were less frequent.
- * Traveling outside Europe significantly increased the odds of carrying Campylobacter spp. and enterotoxigenic E. coli, while older individuals (≥65 years) were less likely to carry these microbes compared
