Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that bacterial infections often trigger an immune response characterized by the accumulation of certain immune cells and substances at the site of infection.
Recall that pus formation is a common sign of bacterial infection, which consists of dead white blood cells (mainly neutrophils), bacteria, and tissue debris.
Recognize that high levels of eosinophils are typically associated with parasitic infections or allergic reactions, not bacterial infections.
Know that viral inclusion bodies are intracellular structures seen in cells infected by viruses, not bacteria.
Identify fungal hyphae as structures related to fungal infections, which are distinct from bacterial infections.
