Bacteria in urine

sorry Bacteria may be insignificant contaminants or important pathogens. Bacteria are too few to see in cleanly collected fresh urine from healthy animals.

Pathologic bactiuria is usually accompanied by increased numbers of leukocytes (pyuria).

For more information, see the section on bacteria in the Urine Sediment Atlas.
