Gastropoda Details: NCBI 6448, gram-negative or unknown [class]

| Gastropoda| gastropods

1. Parasitic infections: Certain species of freshwater and marine snails act as intermediate hosts for parasitic worms, such as Schistosoma spp., which cause diseases like schistosomiasis in humans. Infection occurs when larvae released by the parasite into water penetrate the skin of individuals who come into contact with contaminated water.

2. Food poisoning: Some species of land snails and slugs can carry bacteria such as Salmonella spp., which can contaminate food and cause gastrointestinal illness if ingested. Additionally, improper handling or consumption of raw or undercooked snails or slugs can lead to infection with parasites like Angiostrongylus cantonensis, causing a condition known as eosinophilic meningitis.

3. Allergic reactions: Certain individuals may develop allergies to proteins found in snail or slug secretions, leading to allergic reactions upon contact. Symptoms can range from mild skin irritation to severe allergic reactions.

4. Toxicity: While not common, some marine gastropods produce toxins as a defense mechanism. For example, the cone snail's venom can be highly toxic and potentially fatal if stung.

5. Injuries: Accidental ingestion of small snails or their shells, particularly by children, can lead to choking or intestinal obstruction. Additionally, some marine snails have sharp shells or can deliver painful bites if handled improperly.

Lab Reporting

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.

Desired Levels Suggestions for Gastropoda

• Frequency - how often do samples show this bacteria
• UD - An alternative statistical algorithm (which factors in the frequency)
• Kaltoft-Moldrup Heuristic Using uploaded data
• Lab Low and High are calculated using the formula that most labs use: Mean - 2 Standard Deviation to Mean + 2 Standard Deviation

These are values that are computed from lab specific samples (Patent Pending)
