Definition
Ink india is the type of ink that was first discovered and used to write, draw, and use in printing printing. Ink inland has other uses in detecting neoformant cryptocus mushrooms.
Inspection of inland ink is a test carried out to detect the presence of Kriptokos neoformans, a fungus capable of living in humans and animals. In addition, this can also be found in soil contaminated with bird droppings.
Neoformant cryptocurrencies most frequently infect the central nervous system. Colonies of these mushrooms can infect respiratory tracts and can also cause meningitis and cause complications in people who have a low immune system. Like those experiencing AIDS. And it can also infect the skin, lungs, runoff, bones, kidneys, and liver. These cryptocous bacteria can also cause long-term deaths and defects if they are not detected and treated properly.
The meningitis of fungi caused by cryptocokus neoformans occurs quite rarely. This condition may have symptoms similar to meningitis of acute bacteria. The transmission process is often transmitted by inhaling fungal sporas that may be found in soil, rotting wood, and bird droppings.
Mingitis fungi does not spread from person to person. Cryptocous Meningitis is a common form of fungal disease. It affects people with weakened immune systems, such as from HIV/AIDSThis can cause death if it is not treated with an antijamur drug.
Risk factors meningitis, including meningitis due to cryptocous mushrooms, among others:
- Not following the vaccination
Risks are increasing for anyone who has not completed the recommended child or adult vaccination schedule
- Age
Most cases of virus meningitis occur in children under the age of 5 years. Bacterial meningitis often occurs in those under the age of 20.
- Living in a community environment
Students living in dormitories, military personnel, and children in boarding schools and child care facilities are at greater risk of developing meningitis. This may be because bacteria spread through the respiratory tract, and spread rapidly through large groups.
- Pregnancy
Pregnancy increases the risk of infection caused by bacteria, which can also lead to meningitis. These infections increase the risk of miscarriage, birth and death (stillbirth) and premature birth.
- The immune system weakens.
AIDS, alcohol use disorders, diabetes, use of immunosuppressant drugs and other factors that affect the immune system will increase the risk of meningitis.
Indications
Early symptoms of meningitis may be similar to the flu. Symptoms can develop for several hours or for a few days.
Possible symptoms in anyone over the age of 2 include:
- High fever suddenly
- Neck stiff
- Severe headaches
- Nausea or vomiting
- Confusion or difficulty concentrating
- Kejang
- excessive drowsiness or difficulty waking up
- Sensitivity to light
- No appetite or thirst
- Skin columns in some cases
Contraindication
There are no contraindications or conditions that prevent a person from carrying out this examination.
Preparations before examination
There is no special preparation before conducting an indium ink examination. This examination can be carried out in a state of not fasting.

Doctors will take a cerebrospinal liquid using a needle on your spine and take some cc from the liquid to be brought to the laboratory. The liquid will be dripped in inland ink and seen under a microscope to assess the presence and number of cryptophobic neoformants in cerebrospinal liquids.
Normal And Abnormal Values
Results normal: negative or no cryptophobic neoformants found in cerebrospinal liquids.
Results and Suggestions (Continued Inspection)
If a positive result or result other than being negative, you should immediately consult a neurologist for treatment that suits the symptoms. Governance will include giving antibiotics and other drugs to reduce symptoms.
Consult To The Right Doctor
The results of inland examinations in adults can be consulted with general practitioners, for further examination or starting therapy for appropriate diagnosis.
