The colony count of a urine specimen is >100,000 cfu/ml usually indicates a UTI (Urinary tract infection).
- Urine is an excretory fluid that takes away the excess water along with waste products from the filtration system of the kidneys. A healthy individual has no contamination in their urinary system in general, but when the bacteria from outside enters into it causes urinary tract infection.
- Urine culture is one of the tests to diagnose the infection by the bacterial count, in which the bacteria in the urine sample is allowed to grow for the culture.
- The normal count of colonies present in healthy individuals is about 10,000 colonies/ml. The culture is indeterminate between the 10,000 and 100,000 colonies/ml and >100,000 cfu/ml signifies the UTI (Urinary tract infection). It is caused mainly by E.Coli bacteria and hardly by fungi.
- Practicing good hygiene and urination habits are helps to prevent the infection.
- The symptoms of UTI includes a burning sensation when peeing (Cloudy, dark, bloody, or strange smell), fever, tiredness, and pain in the abdomen.
- Amoxicillin and Doxycycline are some of the antibiotics used to treat UTI.

Substances can pass through them
Explanation:
- When a wall or membrane is permeable, it means that substances can pass through it from one side to another.
